Round 9 of Season 36 puts the spotlight on some familiar LRF patterns: heavily relied-upon stars, writers carving out distinct niches, and creators who keep returning to adaptation as their preferred playground.
AN UNHOLY UNION
An Unholy Union brings together two of LRF’s most frequently cast leading ladies in Aubrey Plaza and Elizabeth Olsen. Between them, the pair have now appeared in a combined 22 films for the studio, making this horror-thriller something of a showcase for two of LRF’s most dependable recurring stars.
KILL BIN LADEN
Writer Alex Conn appears to be making a serious run at Lon Charles’ unofficial “Fact to Film” territory. Kill Bin Laden marks Conn’s 14th LRF screenplay based on a true story, further cementing real-world events and historical figures as one of the most recognizable recurring threads in his filmography.
ILVERMORNY: THE HIDDEN SCHOOL
Ilvermorny: The Hidden School is already Dawson Edwards’ 11th film for LRF despite the writer having joined the studio just four seasons ago. Even more strikingly, it is his seventh adaptation, revealing a clear early-career preference for taking established properties and reshaping them into LRF projects.
