Eddington is Ari Aster's next film -- here is what we know so far.

Check out the first look of what's next from the mind behind Hereditary and Midsommar.

With two feature-length films to his name, Ari Aster has already solidified himself as one of the greats. But out of his two films, which one is better? Hereditary or Midsommar?

Ari Aster, the acclaimed director of Hereditary and Midsommar, is set to produce an English-language remake of the genre-bending Korean film Save the Green Planet!, it was announced Thursday by CJ Entertainment. Original filmmaker Joon-hwan Jang is returning to direct from a script by Will Tracy, who writes for HBO's Succession. Aster and Lars Knudsen will produce under their Square Peg banner alongside Francis Chung of CJ, which will finance the remake. CJ's Miky Lee, Young-ki Cho, Jerry Ko will serve as executive producers, while the company's Fred Lee, Ini Chung, and Khan …

Ari Aster has been praised for his brand of “arthouse horror,” delivering thoroughly unsettling films while simultaneously exploring mature emotional themes. His films are visually arresting, to be sure, and the standout shocks of his breakout hit Hereditary are the kind that stick with you for years, waiting to pop back up in your mind’s eye every time you turn out the lights. But while Aster is unquestionably a skilled director, his stories are extremely basic plots that rely on tried-and-true scary movie tropes. In fact, both Hereditary and his follow-up Midsommar are essentially remakes of …

There's a lot of ways to be a bad boyfriend. Some people are abusive, some people are unfaithful, and some people are just downright selfish and self-centered to the bitter end. On that last note, ladies and gentlemen, meet Christian, the bad boyfriend from Ari Aster's stunning sophomore feature Midsommar, who has become one of the love-to-hate-him hits of the year, a regular talking point on twitter, and undoubtedly, the cause of several arguments between couples who should have broken up a long time ago. Today, we've got a new exclusive behind-the-…

Humanity has been doing gross and horrific stuff long before people started making movies.

A deep dive into a fascinating film.

On paper, Ari Aster's Hereditary follow-up seemed too big and challenging to possibly work.

There are a few ways to look at that crazy conclusion!

When you make a feature debut that gets as much attention and acclaim as Ari Aster's Hereditary did last year, you better believe that there's going to be a lot of curiosity about the followup. Fortunately, Aster stuck the landing with Midsommar, a film that's less visceral and haunting but just as gorgeous and, surprisingly, very funny. Aster trades dark, cramped corners and broken families for sunny European splendor and broken romance, following a co-dependent couple forced deeper into their dying romance by tragedy (played by Florence Pugh and Jack Reynor,) who travel to a sun-…

This summer's most challenging and unsettling films has something particularly exceptional going for it that make it a must-see.

Hereditary writer/director Ari Aster is back to torment audiences with another horrifying head trip through the rabbit hole of grief with Midsommar; a vibrant, perverse sophomore feature that reunites the filmmaker with A24. But if Midsommar marks a return to familiar creative inspirations for Aster, the end result is a stylistic counterpoint, leaving behind the dark confines of a household trapped in hell in favor of a sprawling, sunny fever dream that adorns its terrors in floral arrangements and summery cheer. The end result is a surreal and surprisingly funny folk horror fairy tale that never quite taps into …

Oh yeah, Ari Aster is gonna bring the pain again in Midsommar. Confirmed. The first trailer for Aster and A24's Hereditary follow-up teased a whole new vibe for the filmmaker, with sun-soaked cinematography and a vivid outdoorsy palette, but the new trailer brings the pain with brutal bodily injury and a whole heap of emotional turmoil. Now there's the Ari Aster we know and fear love. The new trailer also offers a bit more insight into the characters and their trauma, focusing on Dani (Florence Pugh) and Christian (Jack Reynor), an American couple who are on …

Ari Aster arrived on the scene in 2018 with the resounding thud of a small child's noggin bouncing off a telephone pole. The director's jarring, head-rolling feature-length debut Hereditary pretty much guaranteed that its follow-up, Midsommar, would be highly anticipated in horror circles. And that was before Aster gave it the absolutely wonderful descriptor of, in his own words, "a Wizard of Oz for perverts." As another modern piece of art once said: "My brand." Speaking to Vulture, Aster gave more than a few intriguing comparisons for his upcoming nightmare. “It’s a breakup movie, …

The first trailer for writer-director Ari Aster's upcoming feature film Midsommar is here, and it's a doozy. If you're a fan of Herditary, or have become a cult devotee of the 2018 horror hit, some of these beats should be familiar to you: There's the creepy, rhythmic music; the abrupt editing style that cuts from one rich and colorful scene to the next; and the suffusion of pagan mythology that permeates the whole thing. We don't get a great sense of the characters here, either those arriving to the special, once-every-nine-years …

A24 has released the first poster for the next film from Hereditary writer/director Ari Aster, and it’s… bright and colorful and cheery? Hereditary hit hard when it opened last year, as Aster’s meticulous attention to detail and Toni Collette’s harrowing performance resulted in a horror film that is truly unforgettable in the worst way. There are images in that movie that will haunt me for the rest of my life, so imagine my surprise at this first poster for Midsommar, Aster’s next film. The new film covers somewhat familiar territory, as it follows a couple (… The post First Poster for ‘Hereditary’ Director Ari Aster’s New Film ‘Midsommar’ Is Bright and Colorful appeared first on Collider.
