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/

Hope they can make it happen. The 4 of them and Luca have such chemistry together. You could see it at the news conference and on the red carpet.
Joy to watch.

I don't know what to think about this remake... Matthias has starred in enough remakes so far LOL, but I'd like to see him doing an original project with Guadagnino.

Luca Guadagnino confirmed that Tilda Swinton will be in the film, shooting begins in August 2016. No word yet if Matthias will join the cast.
“I’ll start shooting the remake of Suspiria, a real horror classic by Dario Argento, this August. It’ll be set in Berlin ‘77, to be released in 2017. Dakota Johnson and Tilda Swinton will definitely be in it.” http://darumaview.it/2015/11/a-bigger-splash-abbiamo-incontrato-il-regista-luca-guadagnino-0110490.php
