Josh Hartnett and M. Night Shyamalan’s daughter, Saleka, have been cast in Shyamalan’s new movie.
According to Film Updates, Hartnett and Saleka have been cast in Shyamalan’s new movie, which was previously known as Trap but is currently filming under the title Good Grades. The movie was granted a Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) waiver allowing Shyamalan to film it during the ongoing actors strike for better wages, protection against artificial intelligence, and more.
While plot details are currently unknown, the movie will reportedly be a “psychological thriller set at a concert,” according to Film Updates. Saleka will play a pop artist in the movie, while Hartnett will play a father attending the concert with his child.
