Barbarian director Zach Cregger already has another horror movie lined up called Weapons, which has a multistory style similar to Paul Thomas Anderson's Magnolia.
Following a fierce bidding war, Barbarian director Zach Cregger's next horror movie, Weapons, is revealed, and it sounds very different but intriguing. This past September, the rookie filmmaker burst onto the scene with Barbarian, a surprise hit at the box office. The horror film, which was lauded by critics for its originality, genuine scariness, and strong performances, follows a woman whose Airbnb is double-booked with a stranger .
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Since Barbarian was a critical and commercial hit, studios have been falling over themselves to work with Cregger on his next project. Now, following a fierce bidding war that saw New Line emerge as the winner, the Barbarian breakout's next horror movie has been revealed. It is titled Weapons and sounds very different from his first film.
Perhaps the most intriguing reveal about Weapons is its comparison to Magnolia. Paul Thomas Anderson's 1999 mosaic-like movie weaves together the stories of various interconnected characters before inexplicably raining frogs at the end of its three-hour runtime. While Barbarian featured a rather simple premise that was executed well and expanded on throughout its one-hour and 42-minute runtime, Cregger's next film sounds like a much more ambitious and lengthy horror project.
With a background in comedy, Cregger seemingly came out of nowhere with the horror hit Barbarian and, after just one film, has arguably become one of the leading horror auteurs. His collaboration with New Line, the Warner Bros. label famous for producing the Nightmare on Elm Street film series, should only continue increasing Cregger's profile.
