A24 Snags The Martin Scorsese Exec Produced Movie ‘The Eternal Daughter’ Starring Tilda Swinton

A24 has snagged the world rights for the under-the-radar ghost story The Eternal Daughter, starring Oscar-winner Tilda Swinton (Michael Clayton, We Need to Talk About Kevin, Suspiria, Constantine). The paranormal mystery-thriller, which is currently in post-production, centers on the story of a middle-aged daughter and her elderly mother who must confront long-buried secrets when they return to their former family home, a once-grand manor that has become a nearly vacant hotel brimming with mystery. Deadline reports. Joseph Mydell (Tonight You’re Mine), Carly Davies (The enemy), and Alfie Sankey-Green (Downtown Abbey) also star. Shot in secret in Wales during the lockdown, the project re-teams Swinton with director Joanna Hogg after they recently collaborated on the movie The Souvenir and the upcoming sequel The Souvenir Part 2, which will premiere later this year. The film is produced by Normal People and Room producers Element Pictures and JWH Films, with backing from BBC Film. Legendary filmmaker Martin Scorsese will serve as executive producer.

In New ‘King Cohen’ Clip We See Larry Cohen Talk ‘Q’

Larry Cohen, that’s a name every horror fan should recognize. Cohen is behind films such as It’s Alive, It Lives Again, Q, The Stuff, Maniac Cop, Body Snatchers, Uncle Sam, and so many more. Steve Mitchell‘s documentary King Cohen, about the life and works of Larry Cohen, is approaching its release and we’ve gotten our hands on the first clip from the film. We sat down with Mr. Mitchell recently for an interview and discussed both King Cohen and his classic genre film Chopping Mall. Mitchell talked with such passion about the project and filled us in on the many interviews that we will see in the film. We have a pretty good cast.

Abrams does our intro, we’ve got Robert Forester, Tara Reid, Tracy Lawrence, production
