Shyamalan Wraps Shooting On ‘Knock At The Cabin’ Feature

This cabin is just about ready for visitors.

Knock at the Cabin–the latest horror offering from acclaimed filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan–wrapped production this week, and the director took to Twitter to make the announcement and thank his cast and crew. Check out the social media post–courtesy of movieweb.com–on this page.

The Universal Pictures entry–which Shyamalan said “changed me as a person and an artist”–will land in theaters Feb. 3, 2023, so there will be plenty of time to drop stronger hints about the storyline. All that is known so far is that the film deals with a home invasion during an apocalypse.

Knock at the Cabin–written, directed and produced by Shyamalan (as usual)–stars Dave Bautista (Army of the Dead, Guardians of the Galaxy), Rupert Grint (the Harry Potter franchise), Nikki Amuka-Bird (Old), Ben Aldridge (Pennyworth) and Jonathan Groff (Mindhunter).

Shyamalan said he knew he wanted Bautista as his lead in this new film when he saw his performance in Blade Runner 2049. In one particular scene in that movie, Shyamalan said, Bautista was “still in a way that was powerful. There’s a type of stillness where you’re not doing nothing–you’re doing everything and you’re still. Dave was embodying all of that philosophy in that scene.”

Shyamalan’s most recent cinematic triumph–last year’s Old–topped $90 million globally on an $18-million budget and was his sixth film to open at No. 1 at the box office.
