Cannes 2016: Dakota Johnson goes from Grey to Silver for ‘It Follows’ helmer

Dakota Johnson

After suffering at the hands of Christian Grey for the Fifty Shades franchise, Dakota Johnson may be seeking out something lighter for pastures new.

It’s not clear if she’ll be getting it for her just-announced project, but Under The Silver Lake is shaping up to be a juicy prospect, with not a blindfold or rubber attachment in sight. She’ll co-star with Andrew Garfield in what’s being described as an LA-based “modern noir crime thriller”.

No plot details are forthcoming, but the movie will be written and directed by David Robert Mitchell: he who put the fear of God back into us via It Follows.

You can bet there’ll be a fair amount of sinister developments afoot, bolstered by enough rising young talent to fill a sleazy nightclub. Michael De Luca, Lucy Kitada, Chris Bender, Jake Weiner and Adele Romanski are on production duties. Cameras roll in the Summer.

Steve is a journalist and comedian who enjoys American movies of the 70s, Amicus horror compendiums, Doctor Who, Twin Peaks, Naomi Watts and sitting down. His short fiction has been published as part of the Iris Wildthyme range from Obverse Books.
