After the critical failure of big budget blockbusters such as The Last Airbender and After Earth, filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan is returning to his roots with a low-budget thriller entitled Sundowning, which is currently shooting in Pennsylvania with a cast that includes Kathryn Hahn (We’re the Millers) and young actor Ed Oxenbould (Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day).
According to The Wrap, Sundowning “is described as a psychological phenomenon associated with increased confusion and restlessness in patients with some form of dementia” and the film will see Hahn as a single mother whose two young children visit their grandparents, where things go “very wrong.” Shyamalan has written and directed the movie, and is also producing alongside Marc Bienstock and Ashwin Rajan.
