David Lowery
's '
Death in Her Hands
'.
'Death in Her Hands', described as an "anarchic whodunnit" and "an otherworldly psychological thriller" is adapted by Lowery from the cult novel by
Ottessa Moshfegh
("My Year of Rest and Relaxation"), reported Variety.
The film will be produced by Iain Canning,
Emile Sherman
and Jeanie Igoe; executive producers are Simon Gillis and Ann Phillips.
"I am a devoted fan of Ottessa Moshfegh, and the opportunity to translate 'Death In Her Hands' to the big screen has been, in some ways, a subterfuge for getting to spend a great deal of time obsessing over her prose. But now the ruse is up!" said Lowery, currently in post on "Mother Mary," according to Variety.

"The script begot by the novel will soon become a film, and I am suddenly aware more than ever that adapting this particular work represents a devious challenge (anyone who's read the novel will understand why)! But I'm ready for it, and am emboldened to have such wonderful collaborators at my side, the whole team at See-Saw, Jeanie, and of course, the incredible Tilda Swinton, who I know will illuminate Ottessa's story in ways I could only dream of," shared Lowery.
Added producers Canning and Sherman, "David Lowery is a master of crafting striking, atmospheric stories, and there's no one better to bring Ottessa Moshfegh's haunting and brilliant novel to the screen. We can't wait for audiences to step into the world he creates and be swept away by Vesta's story, played by the incomparable, magnetic, and endlessly compelling Tilda Swinton," reported Variety.

'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' box office collection day 9: Pawan Kalyan starrer collects Rs 28 lakh on second Friday
Picture Credit: X Pawan Kalyan's much-hyped period action drama 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Part 1 – Swords vs Spirit' has been facing a poor reception at the box office. The movie's momentum seems to have faded after a promising start. As per early estimates by trade analyst Sacnilk, the film managed to collect only Rs 28 lakh on its ninth day, marking its lowest single-day figure so far. Box office trends The film, which hit theatres on July 24, opened to massive expectations, especially with Pawan Kalyan taking on a full-fledged period role and the makers branding it as his first pan-Indian film. While the opening weekend brought in decent numbers, the collection has steadily declined since the weekdays began. In the first week, the movie opened powerfully with Rs 34.75 crore on day 1, but sharp drops followed. Collections slumped to Rs 8 crore on the second day and fluctuated around Rs 9-10 crore through the weekend before falling further during weekdays. The total earnings for the first week stood at Rs 80.86 crore, but the second week hasn't seen much traction. The film's current India total stands at a little over Rs 81 crore, and is also facing competition from other big releases like Vijay Deverakonda 's 'Kingdom'. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 20 Pieces of Clothing Older Women should Avoid Learn More Undo About the film Directed by Jyothi Krishna and Krish Jagarlamudi, 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' is set in the Mughal era and tells the story of a fictional character which is an outlaw Veera Mallu, played by Pawan Kalyan, who takes on the oppressive regime.
