Round 6 of Season 36 looks toward both the future and the past—laying the groundwork for an ambitious franchise, celebrating one of LRF’s modern horror icons, and revealing how an established filmmaker’s personal relationship helped secure one of the season’s most anticipated directing gigs.
Assassin's Creed: Eternal
LRF is thinking well beyond a single installment with Assassin's Creed: Eternal. Every featured actor signed on to the project is under a three-film contract, with the expectation that each performer will portray at least two different characters across the next two sequels—a fitting approach for a franchise built around generations of interconnected Assassins.
Darkness
With Darkness, Maika Monroe further cements her status as one of LRF’s premier scream queens. The film marks her sixth appearance for the studio—and remarkably, her fifth in either the horror or suspense genre—continuing a career that has become closely associated with modern psychological and supernatural thrillers.
Fletch
Before Richard Linklater officially came aboard, writer Chad Taylor's new Fletch adaptation briefly had Rian Johnson under consideration for the director’s chair. In the end, Linklater secured the project thanks in large part to his existing creative relationship with star Glen Powell, giving the film a filmmaker-actor pairing already built on mutual trust.
