Jake Gyllenhaal joining forces with M. Night Shyamalan for a supernatural romantic thriller is a surprising turn of events.

Both creators will be adapting the story for their respective mediums, Shyamalan for a screenplay and Sparks for a novel, ensuring a cohesive narrative across both projects.
While the movie and novel will share the same core characters and ideas, their adaptations will cater to the unique strengths of each format. The InSneider first broke the news of Gyllenhaal's involvement, and Shyamalan will also direct the film. Warner Bros. is in talks to distribute the romantic thriller in theaters. Production will be handled by Shyamalan's Blinding Edge Pictures, with executive producers including Shyamalan, Sparks, Ashwin Rajan, Theresa Park, and Marc Bienstock. Gyllenhaal is currently preparing for his role alongside Denzel Washington in Broadway's adaptation of Othello, set to premiere next month. He also has several other projects lined up for the upcoming years, including Prime Video's reimagining of Road House and Apple TV+'s legal thriller Presumed Innocent. Meanwhile, Shyamalan remains a prolific filmmaker, having written and directed the successful films Split, Old, Knock at the Cabin, and the upcoming Trap. In addition to his film work, he served as showrunner and executive producer for the acclaimed Apple TV+ horror series Servant. Sparks, one of Hollywood's most successful novelists, sees another one of his works adapted for the big screen, following the success of previous adaptations like A Walk to Remember, The Notebook, and Dear John. His latest novel, Counting Miracles, has already become a New York Times bestseller and is slated to be adapted by Amazon
