Even though Old did not make as much success as his other works such as Signs and Split; in fact, it ended up being blasted by critics after release. His upcoming movie, Knock At The Cabin seems to be drilled with thrill and anticipation with not only a star-studded cast but, also the fans of M. Night Shyamalan gathering up to once again learn more of the twists he has to offer.

M. Night Shyamalan Is Set To Direct Another Movie

A new horror-thriller movie seems to be in the works with M. Night Shyamalan and is scheduled to release in April 2024. The project itself has no news as of late, being just as secretive as all of his other movies. Neither the title nor the plot has been released, let alone the cast. Its production too would start discretely and he would be the independent producer of the film. Shyamalan is famously secretive when it comes to his projects but we would soon be hearing some news of the upcoming work.

Although his previous movie Old only made around $90 million, it was during the pandemic and his other works have managed to make over $3.3 billion combined in the last two decades. Any information about his upcoming movie has been kept under wraps and is highly unlikely to be leaked as most of his projects do remain to be so.
