¡Viva Argento! Isabelle Huppert Joins New Dario Argento Paris Project Next Spring

Published on October 10, 2022

After shoring up in Jerzy Skolimowski’s EO, Isabelle Huppert will now work with another octogenarian in horror helmer Dario Argento. Currently showcasing Dark Glasses at the Sitges Film Festival, we got some surprise news (via chaosreign) that Argento is prepping for a Spring shoot in Paris next year. He mentions that it is a remake of a Mexican film from the 40s – a country that made their own gothic and horror films beginning in the 30s. We’ll await further producer and casting in the months to come. Huppert has several items that are in the works François Ozon’s Mon Crime, André Téchiné’s La révocation, Patricia Mazuy’s Portraits trompeurs and Elise Girard’s Sidonie In Japan.
