After help relaunch the Scream franchise, filmmaking collective known as Radio Silence have signed on to an Untitled Monster Thriller for Universal Pictures. The group’s Matt Bettinelli-Olpin & Tyler Gillett will direct the project with Chad Villella serving as producer alongside William Sherak, Paul Neinstein and James Vanderbilt at Project X Entertainment.
The script was written by Stephen Sheilds, with revisions by Guy Busick.
Tripp Vinson will produce as well with Radio Silence and Project X, who are recently coming off the huge success of Scream VI that Bettinelli-Olpin & Gillett directed, Project X produced and Radio Silence’s Villella executive produced. Co-written by Project X’s Vanderbilt, the film set a franchise record opening at the global box office and grossed $67.1 million globally. The teams also collaborated on 2022’s Scream which reinvigorated the Scream franchise.
Radio Silence was actually eyeing this as their potential next project following their first Scream pic but given how successful their Scream turned out, Paramount wanted to move fast on a sequel and quickly got that film into production. With Scream VI breaking franchise records, Radio Silence now turned their eyes to getting their secret monster movie off the ground and lined this up as their next feature.
In the vein of the Studio’s recent hits like The Invisible Man and Renfield, this untitled monster thriller provides a unique take on legendary monster lore and will represent a fresh, new direction for how to celebrate these classic characters. Universal Monster films are rooted in the horror genre, with no restrictions on budget, rating or genre. They are not part of a shared interconnected universe, which allows each film to stand on
