M. Night Shyamalan [merged]

Anyone know what his next project is and when it's going to come out?

he's doing a movie called "the woods" it's comming out in 2004 i believe. Hope for many more movies from this guy. He's a supurb story teller/movie maker

That he is. A director with some original insight is just what hollywood needs.

Early rumors said he was working on the next superman also. But I just checked Movies.com and somebody new is doing it :/

Can't wait for another movie from him! What's your fave that he's done? Mine is Unbreakable, but my husband's is Signs.

Judy Greer
Bryce Dallas Howard
William Hurt
Joaquin Phoenix
Jayne Atkinson,
Adrien Brody
Brendan Gleason,
Cherry Jones,
Fran Kranz
Ashton Kutcher
Michael Pitt
Sigourney Weaver

Premise

Set in rural Pennsylvania in 1897, this is the story of the small village of Covington (population 60) surrounded by a woods inhabited by a race of "mythical creatures," and the romance that blossoms between Kitty (Greer), the daughter of the town's leader (Hurt), and Lucius (Phoenix), a young man who questions the policy of keeping Covington's citizens completely confined to the village.

The name of his new movie has been changed to The village (there's a movie coming out in 2004 called The woods, with Bruce Campbel (sp)).
It's set to come out in 2004. Plot Outline: Set in 1897, "The Village" tells the story of a close-knit community with a mythical race of creatures residing in the woods around them.
Credited cast:
Joaquin Phoenix .... Lucius Hunt
Bryce Howard .... Ivy Walker
William Hurt .... Edward Walker
Sigourney Weaver .... Alice Hunt
Adrien Brody .... Noah Percy
Judy Greer .... Kitty Walker

Cant wait to see another Night movie and to top that Adrien Brody is in it 😄

My fave is the Sixth sense.
I liked the idea for Unbreakable but the pace of the movie is kinda boring 😖 Could have been better.
I enjoyed the Signs. The story is quite good.Was disappointed with the ending thou. The scene at the house with the Alien 😖

I love how he had Bruce Willis in his first two. Now he'll have Joaquin Phoenix in his 3rd & 4th. Kinda overlapping actors/movies. Interesting.

I thought Signs was his masterpiece, the only one of his movies that didn't completely rely on the ending.

The man is a genious!!!

Ow yes, Night's movies are extraordinary.
I am little surprised to see the cast list that doesn't include him as well. 😄 He always stars in his movies.
My fave is "The Sixth Sense" 4 sure, you know why (look at my sig or avatar).
"Unbreakable" was great too. Especially the soundtrack (by J.N.H.).
But I can't say the same about "Signs". I didn't get the ending, it was not what I expected, it was too simple, uninteresting, to me.

He's my favorite director right now
and my favorite was Signs
then unbreakable...i'm unable to enjoy the sixth sense because my friend ruined the ending for me when it came out...what a bastard

Haha been there too mate. Dont ya just wanna wring their necks.

I agree with fanatos. Sixth sense and ubreakable were two of the best thrillers i have ever seen. But i was not amused with signs. When i saw the poster for the movie i thought that it would be a great alien movie but it to me it was tatlly something else

Bf i see you said that signs diddnt rely totally on the ending. How can you say that? The whole movie lead up to a totally un predictable ending, everything from the girl thinking the water was contamanated to the boy's asma. I think if he has one movie that doesnt rely on the ending it would be unbreakable. The ending to that movie was just an extra bonus. Even if he wasnt being persued by Mr.Glass the movie would still have been just has suspensfull and well rounded.

It looks interesting, its probably going to be another hit for shyamalan.

Is There a Book that goes along with M. Night Shyamalan "The Village"?????????

Does anyone know if there is a Book that was published for the Movie "The Village" coming out this summer?????

It's revealed that

Spoiler:
the creatures are really just human beings of "modern day" (2004 era) coming to the village, while the people of the "Village" are the ones stuck in their old fashioned 19th century fabrication made up by the John Hurst character of the film ... It's a flick about People afraid of change ... beyond the forest is modern society of today. John Hurst's character is the one who kills the animals and puts blood on the doors (as seen in the trailer) so that the people of the village believe that creatures really exist when in fact they dont.

💃 Hope this helps 💃

Is that a spoiler or general knowledge? I'm going to be angry if thats the twist in the movie.
