The title and and release date was revealed on Saturday for director M. Night Shyamalan’s new film OLD. Scheduled for a July 23, 2021 release, the filmmaker has been giving fans updates on his Twitter page.

According to Collider, OLD “is inspired by the French graphic novel Sandcastle by Pierre Oscar Levy and artist Frederik Peeters. An insider told Collider that Shyamalan received Sandcastle as a Father’s Day gift and loved the premise so much that he purchased the rights to the graphic novel, which served as a launching point for his script.

Sources say the events of Old are set in motion when a group of people find a dead body on a beach and slowly realize there is something unnatural happening on that beach.”

Shyamalan latest hit over on the TV streaming service AppleTV+ is “Servant“, a 10-episode, half-hour psychological thriller series. In addition to executive producing the series, Shyamalan directed two episodes, including the pilot.

Shyamalan’s high-concept thrillers have grossed more than $3.3 billion at the global box office.
