A24 Partners With ‘Hereditary’ And ‘Talk To Me’ Producers For Feature Adaptation Of Masha Ko’s Sundance Short ‘The Looming’


A24, Square Peg and Causeway Films have boarded an adaptation of Masha Ko's horror short 'The Looming', which premiered at Sundance this year.

Ko will write/direct the adaptation with A24 producing alongside Square Peg’s Ari Aster, Lars Knudsen and Tyler Campellone and Causeway Films’ Samantha Jennings and Kristina Ceyton. Ko would ultimately sign with Range Media Partners then WME and quickly began working on what her next project would be with a feature version of the looming being an obvious choice. Similar to when Talk To Me hit the market during the 2023 festival, A24 saw this as a perfect opportunity to reunite with Causeway and bring in Square Peg to go after the package and ultimately land the rights to it.
