Our initial rumor was correct. A24 has just acquired U.S. distribution rights to Luca Guadagnino’s “Queer,” starring Daniel Craig. I’m also being told that it was A24 who were initially concerned by the film’s 200-minute runtime and asked Guadagnino to edit the film down to a releasable length. Queer’s budget is said to be around $53M.
Is “The Exorcist” truly the greatest horror film ever made, or has time crowned a new champion of fear? Maybe it’s “The Shining,” ‘Texas Chainsaw,’ “Psycho,” or something entirely unexpected that still keeps you up at night.
