“Devil” Relocates to Toronto
Tuesday, August 25th, 2009 by Dr Malcolm CroweM. Night Shyamalan is renowned for shooting his films in (and around) the Philadelphia area. Since Wide Awake, the filmmaker has filmed each of his movies around the city of brotherly love — bringing in an estimated $375 million to the local economy. For his latest project, a film titled Devil, this will all change. The financiers of the project (which is being produced by Shyamalan) could no longer wait for legislators to approve the film tax credits and decided to move the production to Toronto, Canada. Carrie Rickey of Philly.com reports:
“Last week, at the 11th hour, Devil withdrew its application for credits because of uncertainty with respect to whether film tax credits would be in the state budget,” Jane Saul, director of the Pennsylvania Film Office, said yesterday. “This is an obvious sign that without the film tax credit in place, we lose film business, and in turn, jobs.”
Devil is being developed under Shyamalan’s Night Chronicles production company with Media Rights Capital. The film is a supernatural thriller to be directed by siblings John and Drew Dowdle. The script will be written by Brian Nelson and based on an original idea from Shyamalan. Thanks to Sri HK in the forums for the tip!

Quarantine duo working on Shyamalan’s Night Chronicles
Friday, October 24th, 2008 by Dr Malcolm CroweA couple months ago we announced that M. Night Shyamalan would be producing a series of thrillers over the next three years. The series, titled Night Chronicles, is a joint-venture between M. Night Shyamalan and Media Rights Capital. The stories will be based off Night’s own original ideas, but he will leave the writing and directing up to others. Although no plot details have been released, last weekend it was announced that John and Drew Dowdle (Quarantine) have been called upon to write and direct the first of the three films. Quarantine is currently in theaters.
