Variety Reports that Aaron Paul and Jacob Tremblay have both been cast in a new horror movie called The Night House. This isn’t the same film from 2020 that starred Rebecca Hall, it’s in fact an adaptation of Jo Nesbø’s novel, which was published in 2023. The film is being directed by Jesper Ganslandt.
“In the wake of his parents’ recent death, highschooler Richard (Tremblay) has been sent to live with relatives in the remote town of Ballantyne,” a description of the film reads. “One day, during an innocent prank call in a phone booth, Richard shockingly witnesses his classmate violently get sucked into the phone receiver and disappear without a trace. Police suspect Richard to be responsible, and no one believes his story except Karen – a fellow teenage outsider. As Richard and Karen try to understand their friend’s unspeakable death, they soon realise they have unleashed terrifying evil forces. In this twisted spin on a classic horror story, and as reality starts to blur, we must ask ourselves – can we truly trust Richard, and can he even trust himself?”
