Sequel to X-Men: First Class . The X-Men are fighting a battle for survival of the species in two different periods of time. In X-Men: Days of Future Past the original characters of the trilogy, X-Men join forces with themselves years ago (X-Men: First Class) in an epic battle that will change the past to save the future.
After 2019's Underwater Hell in which he grated our nerves between floods and alligators, and the tense and claustrophobic sci-fi thriller encapsulating Mélanie Laurent in Netflix's Oxygen last year, Frenchman Alexandre Aja returns to what he he likes to do most, horror stories in what will be his new project titled Mother Land. For this, it already has a star signing, the Oscar-winning Halle Berry, according to Deadline.
In it, the actress will play the mother of two twins who claims to be frightened for years by an evil spirit. But when one of the children questions the veracity of his torment, wondering if it is the product of the imagination of a sick mind, another nightmare will be set in motion in which the relationship with his children will also be at stake.
It will be a psychological thriller and horror proposal produced by 21 Laps Entertainment, the company behind other successful titles such as The Arrival of Denis Villeneuve or participating in the production of the series Stranger Things, also for Netflix.
And citing the streaming giant, it was on Netflix that Halle Berry premiered Wound, last November, and that was her directorial debut. In addition, The Mothership also has a pending premiere there, in which she also plays a mother whose husband mysteriously disappeared and, after discovering an alien artifact under her farm, she will try to protect her children and at the same time discover what is hidden behind the riddle of what happened to her husband.
But in Mother Land it will not be under the mantle of the streaming company but of Lionsgate, which at the next Cannes Film Festival, to be held from May 17 to 28, will be the company in charge of already closing some sales to international distributors and making sure, in this way, the viability of a production that plans to start up next year. And with a Halle Berry whose main previous experience in the field of psychological and horror thriller was almost twenty years ago, with Gothika from 2003 and directed by Mathieu Kassovitz.
