a custom image of M. Night Shyamalan his new thriller Trap

The Big Picture If there's one filmmaker who's going to keep audiences on their toes, it's Oscar-nominee M. Night Shyamalan. Though he's dabbled in many genres, most of his movies share a sense of mystery—whether in dread or fantasy—and his upcoming horror thriller Trap is no different.

Release Date August 2, 2024 Director M. Night Shyamalan Cast Josh Hartnett , Hayley Mills , Marnie McPhail , Ariel Donoghue Main Genre Horror Writers M. Night Shyamalan Studio Blinding Edge Pictures , New Line Cinema Distributor Warner Bros. Pictures , New Line Cinema Expand COLLIDER: You've done a lot of cool sequences and shots in your career.

For Trap, Trap was the most shots that I'd ever done, which I was shocked by. As we were starting to come up with the shots, me and the storyboard artist and , the cinematographer, it just wanted to have this cadence. It's an action movie at a concert, and it wanted to have this kind of rhythm to it. But the next one may want to have this kind of string-line tension of just quiet movement. That didn't match the buoyancy of what Trap was. This one had a lot of kinetic things to it.

SHYAMALAN: That was the fun of it for me. That was the fun, both of the creating and then the to put in the shoes of him and kind of, against your will, root for him. He's both the protagonist and the antagonist. It's fun to flip. Then the structure of the movie at some point shifts to him as the antagonist, and so you're frightened. That's a beautiful thing of structure which I enjoyed writing, and Josh enjoyed performing.

SHYAMALAN: It wasn't quite like what you just said. It wasn't, “I cast her as the pop star.
