Nanny's Nikyatu Jusu to write and direct a new take on David Cronenberg's The Fly

As a seasoned gamer with a penchant for both horror games and films, I must say that Nikyatu Jusu’s upcoming adaptation of The Fly has me absolutely buzzing with anticipation! With her unique storytelling abilities and knack for creating unsettling atmospheres, she’s proven herself to be a master of psychological horror.

Director Nikyatu Jusu, the creative mind behind the psychological horror film “Nanny,” is preparing to steer an innovative adaptation of David Cronenberg’s 1986 sci-fi horror masterpiece “The Fly.” This fresh take on the classic horror story is being produced by 20th Century Studios and Chernin Entertainment. The gifted director has commenced work on this new horror project, which is likewise known as “The Fly.

The upcoming horror film, unlike a remake, offers a fresh perspective on the 1986 sci-fi horror classic, sharing the same fictional universe. Jusu is responsible for both writing and directing this project, with Peter Chernin and Jenno Topping from Chernin Entertainment producing it as well.

At the moment, specifics about the movie’s storyline are under wraps. But given that Jusu is the screenwriter, we’re excitedly anticipating an engaging plot. The timing for this film’s announcement couldn’t be better, as body horror movies are currently all the rage.

In September, Coralie Fargeat’s film titled “The Substance” hit theaters, and since then, everyone seems to be discussing its unique brand of body horror. With the current surge in demand for such films, it would be wise to take advantage of this trend.

Cronenberg’s film “The Fly” is inspired by the 1957 short story and 1958 movie of the same name. The movie features Jeff Goldblum as Seth Brundle, a quirky scientist who inadvertently combines his genetic material with that of a housefly while developing a groundbreaking teleportation machine.

Due to this unfortunate incident, Brundle undergoes a gruesome metamorphosis, eventually becoming a grotesque blend of human and fly. Actors like Geena Davis, John Getz, Joy Boushel, Leslie Carlson, and George Chuvalo join Goldblum in the film’s cast. We’re eager to see Jusu’s unique perspective on this remarkable movie.

As a gamer, I’d like to share some exciting news: I’ve been involved in creating a chilling horror movie titled “Nanny.” This film revolves around a Senegalese immigrant who steps into the role of a nanny for a well-off white couple. However, things quickly take a supernatural turn as she encounters strange and eerie occurrences shortly after starting her job.
