This collaboration promises to breathe new life into a beloved horror gem, blending Pattinson’s producing prowess with Finn’s directorial vision.


Released in 1981 and directed by Andrzej Żuławski, Possession quickly gained a reputation for its unsettling atmosphere and psychological intensity. The film stars Isabelle Adjani and Sam Neill in a story that defies easy categorization, exploring themes of possession, obsession, and the breakdown of relationships.

His decision to produce Possession underscores his commitment to pushing boundaries within the horror genre and supporting innovative storytelling.

With Finn at the helm, audiences can anticipate a remake that honors the spirit of the original while introducing new elements to captivate contemporary viewers.
