With the release of The Watchers, Ishana Night Shyamalan will make her feature film directing debut. New Line will make the movie that is based on A.M. Shine’s book. The movie will begin shooting later this year, according to The Hollywood Reporter, and it will have a global theatrical release on June 7, 2024. Ishana Night Shyamalan, whose films are recognised for their spooky themes and unexpected conclusions, is the daughter of the well-known director M. Night Shyamalan.
Ishana, a Tisch School of the Arts graduate from NYU, will write and direct The Watchers. With her directing work on the Apple TV+ series Servant, the writer-director has been making waves on the tiny screen. Ishana Night Shyamalan has previously worked on the 2019 short film Paradise, Saleka’s Clarity and Mr. Incredible music video, and a few Servant episodes. In collaboration with New Line, M. Night Shyamalan and Ashwin Rajan will produce the movie through their production business Blinding Edge Pictures.
The Watchers is the story of Mina, a 28-year-old artist. She becomes stuck in a sizable virgin forest that is situated in a dark, isolated area of western Ireland. When she eventually located a place to stay, she came upon three other strangers who were also lost. The four opted to spend the night in that shelter even though they would be imprisoned. They soon discovered themselves in a glass-walled room with an electric light that comes on at dusk. They’ll soon become aware that enigmatic creatures are watching them.
