Danielle Deadwyler and director Jaume Collet-Serra, recognized for his work on “Black Adam,” are set to collaborate on a new project titled “The Woman in the Yard.”
This upcoming thriller, a venture between Blumhouse and Universal Pictures, is scheduled for release in theaters on January 10, 2025.
Penned by Sam Stefanak, the screenplay for “The Woman in the Yard” remains shrouded in mystery, with the plot details closely guarded. However, Blumhouse founder Jason Blum expressed his excitement about the project, emphasizing the long-awaited collaboration between himself, Collet-Serra, and Deadwyler.
