If this news is indeed confirmed it would be major indeed.
DEADLINE is reporting that legendary director Francis Ford Coppola has kind of silently begun filming his next project, and it has a genre connection.
Here's a snipit from their report:
Francis Ford Coppola has begun quietly directing his next feature. I'm told that Coppola is shooting Twixt Now And Sunrise, a thriller with overtones of horror, and that his star is Val Kilmer. Also in the cast are Elle Fanning (Super 8) and Bruce Dern (who long ago starred in the Coppola-scripted The Great Gatsby).
But the picture's fulcrum is Kilmer, who plays a horror novelist. The
film is based on a short story written by Coppola. It is shooting in
Napa, on Coppola's property. Coppola hasn't tackled the horror genre
since early in his career, when he directed Dementia 13, and of course Bram Stoker's Dracula. And some might consider Apocalypse Now to be horror.
Wow, how cool would this be? No "official" confirmation yet but as soon as it's validated, I'll let you know.
If it is true this would be the first time he's turned his attention to horror since 1992 when he brought us the amazing DRACULA. Has it really been almost 20 years? Ugh.
