Brady Corbet Sets Next Film on American Mysticism as A24 Backs a 50-Day Shoot

The expanded schedule points to a more spacious production than his past sprint shoots.

Overview

  • Speaking at Dublin’s Storyhouse on Thursday, Corbet said his next feature explores American mysticism and the history of the occult, and he is researching with historian Mitch Horowitz.
  • He told the audience the screenplay runs about 200 pages, signaling another large-scale, tightly written project.
  • Corbet said A24 approved a 50-day shoot, described as two 25-day blocks, which gives him more time than past films that shot in 22 to 33 days.
  • The project remains in pre-production with no cast or start date announced, and Corbet said he expects to share more updates in the coming months.
  • The Playlist reported unconfirmed chatter that Selena Gomez is circling a lead role, which has not been announced by a studio.
