Jonathan Entwistle to Direct Studiocanal’s Modern Reimagining of Agatha Christie’sEndless Night

Studiocanal backs a script by Emily Siegel with The Picture Company producing under its overall deal.

Overview

  • The project is described as a contemporary psychological thriller rather than a period adaptation of Christie’s 1967 novel.
  • The story centers on an ambitious twentysomething who becomes ensnared in blame and deception after a relationship with a volatile American heiress and her assistant.
  • Andrew Rona and Alex Heineman will produce for The Picture Company, which is partnered with Studiocanal on the film.
  • Studiocanal executives Ron Halpern and Shana Eddy-Grouf will executive produce and oversee the project for the studio.
  • The film is in early development with no casting, production start, or release date announced, as Entwistle follows recent work on The End of the F***ing World and Karate Kid: Legends.
