In the wake of horror movies Hereditary and Midsommar, Ari Aster is back this year with his third feature film, a nightmare comedy titled Beau Is Afraid. Starring Joaquin Phoenix, A24 will be releasing the film in theaters on April 21, but what’s NEXT for Aster?
Speaking with The New York Times this week, Aster has seemingly confirmed that he’ll next be re-teaming with Joaquin Phoenix for a whole different type of genre movie.
The New York Times writes, “In coy half-nods, Aster let on that [he and Phoenix] have another project in development; his next film will “almost certainly” be a western.”
In Beau Is Afraid, “A paranoid man embarks on an epic odyssey to get home to his mother in this bold and ingeniously depraved new film from writer/director Ari Aster.”
Aster tells The NY Times of the experience making the movie with Joaquin Phoenix, “It was the best experience of my life. But it also taught me how I want to work in the future — the seriousness with which I expect an actor to approach any given part.”
