The film will be produced by Roy Lee (It), Andrew Trapani (Winchester) and Steven Schneider (Pet Sematary) alongside Lanthimos, Ed Guiney and Andrew Lowe of Element Pictures.
After entering talks with the Oscar-nominated Yorgos Lanthimos to helm an adaptation of the gothic western The Hawkline Monster, the New Regency production is moving forward as screenwriter Tony McNamara is in talks to reunite with Lanthimos after their work on the Oscar-winning The Favourite, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The first attempt to adapt the novel came shortly after its release when Hal Ashby and Nicholson set to star, but yet again the project failed to gain momentum.
