Matthias may work with Luca Guadagnino again in a remake of Suspiria
Luca Guadagnino is looking to next remake Dario Argento’s Suspiria. The project, to which David Gordon Green was once attached, has been mentioned at the end of a Variety interview posted earlier this week, but was more fully explained (and made far more intriguing) at the Venice press conference, seen below. According to HitFix, “one of the reasons Guadagnino has set Suspiria as his next project is because he wants to reunite with Dakota Johnson, Matthias Schoenaerts, Ralph Fiennes and Tilda Swinton, his primary cast from “A Bigger Splash.” So good was the experience on this film that helmer and stars “want to try to make it an annual experience.”
Guadagnino will set his version in Berlin circa 1977, running in accordance with the release year of Argento’s film and making a slight location shift, and in this iteration focus on “the concept of motherhood and about the uncompromising force of motherhood.” Johnson in the Jessica Harper role and Swinton as Mater Suspiriorum are the first two guarantees, then? This already sounds like it could be worthy of Suspiria‘s mantle. http://thefilmstage.com/news/luca-guadagnino-to-reunite-a-bigger-splash-cast-in-suspiria-remake-jamie-foxx-joins-edgar-wrights-baby-driver/
