André Øvredal, known for his work in horror films, recently shared insights about an unproduced script titled The Overlook Hotel, which serves as a prequel to Stephen King's iconic novel The Shining. Despite considering the script brilliant, Øvredal doubts it will ever reach the screen. He is currently focused on his latest project, Passenger, which follows a young couple, Tyler and Maddie, portrayed by Jacob Scipio and Lou Llobell, as they embark on a van life adventure. Their journey takes a dark turn when they witness a horrific car accident, leading them to be relentlessly pursued by a gruesome specter known as the Passenger. The film also features Oscar-winner Melissa Leo and is set to be released in theaters on May 22. Øvredal's previous works include notable horror films like Trollhunter and Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark.
