Martin Scorsese to Direct What Happens at Night With Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence

Apple Original Films is negotiating to co‑finance with Studiocanal, with production targeted for January 2026 pending final deals.

Overview

  • The adaptation of Peter Cameron’s novel has a screenplay by Patrick Marber, developed after Studiocanal acquired rights in 2023.
  • Deadline first reported the project, which multiple outlets corroborated as Scorsese’s likely next film in late-stage development.
  • The story follows an American couple who travel to a snowy European city to adopt a baby and check into an eerie, nearly deserted hotel.
  • This would be the seventh Scorsese–DiCaprio feature collaboration and the first time Scorsese directs Jennifer Lawrence.
  • Financing, distribution and supporting cast are still being finalized, with Apple seen as a logical partner given existing first‑look deals and past collaborations.
