Suspiria by Luca Guadagnino will have its world premiere today, Sept. 1, 2018, at the Venice International Film Festival, an exhibition that began Aug. 29 and runs through Sept. 8, 2018. Suspiria è il primo film italiano in concorso e avrà due proiezioni (alle ore 19:15 - Sala Grande e alle ore 20:00 - Palabiennale) alla presenza del regista Luca Guadagnino e delle due protagoniste Dakota Johnson e Tilda Swinton.
More than a remake, Suspiria is a reworking, a kind of homage to Dario Argento's masterpiece. Written by David Kajganich, this horror film will debut in US theaters on November 2, 2018 with Amazon Studios. An Italian release date is currently unknown.
Dakota Johnson is Susie Bannion, an American dancer admitted to the prestigious Berlin ballet school run by Madame Blanc (Tilda Swinton), one of the institute's teachers. On the very day of her arrival, however, a girl from the dance company disappears without a trace. From that moment, Susie begins to suspect that the principal and the entire school are hiding a sinister secret.
In the cast of Suspiria, in addition to Dakota Johnson (50 Shades of Grey) and Tilda Swinton (Constantine, Only Lovers Survive), also appear Chloë Grace Moretz (Blood Story, The Look of Satan - Carrie), Renée Soutendijk, Mia Goth (The Cure from Wellness), Sylvie Testud and Jessica Harper (Suspiria 1977).
The soundtrack is by Thom Yorke, the frontman of Radiohead.
