Back in July of 2020, Annapurna Pictures won an auction and landed the rights to Rachel Yoder’s debut novel, “NightBitch”. The novel was to be developed as a star vehicle for six-time Oscar nominated actress Amy Adams. This past May at Cannes, Searchlight Pictures acquired “NightBitch” from floundering Annapurna, Marielle Heller was also announced as the writer-director. The film’s plot is total dark absurdism. A neo-horror thriller starring Adams as an overworked woman who is convinced she’s turning into a dog. Here’s a more descriptive plot synopsis: Heller’s debut was Sundance sensation “The Diary of a Teenage Girl.” This was followed by the critically-acclaimed “Can You Ever Forgive Me.” She then dabbled into mainstream filmmaking with the mostly-enjoyable “A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood.” “NightBitch” will bring Heller back to her darker cinematic roots. It’s definitely being added to our 2023 must-see list. Contribute Hire me
