Night Shyamalan story that will be directed by John Erick Dowdle and Drew Dowdle (“Quarantine”).

Production begins in Toronto on Oct. 26.

Pic is being produced by Shyamalan and Sam Mercer. It is the first pic in a deal between Shyamalan and Media Rights Capital to create Night Chronicles, a banner that will hatch one genre film per year for the next three years.

Brian Nelson (“30 Days of Night”) wrote the script. The Dowdles will be exec producers.

Plot’s being kept under wraps, but sources said Messina plays the lead role of Bowden, a sobered-up homicide detective. Messina most recently starred in “Julie and Julia” and “Vicky Cristina Barcelona.”

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.

Thanks to Sri HK in forums for the tip.
