Marielle Heller’s ‘NightBitch’ Has Started Filming in L.A.

October 5, 2022 Jordan Ruimy

Marielle Heller’s “NightBitch” has started production in Los Angeles. This is definitely a movie to keep an eye on.

Back in July of 2020, Annapurna Pictures won an auction and landed the rights to Rachel Yoder’s debut novel, “NightBitch”. The novel was to be developed as a star vehicle for six-time Oscar nominated actress Amy Adams.

This past May at Cannes, Searchlight Pictures acquired “NightBitch” from floundering Annapurna, Marielle Heller was also announced as the writer-director.

The film’s plot is total dark absurdism. A neo-horror thriller starring Adams as an overworked woman who is convinced she's turning into a dog.

Here’s a more descriptive plot synopsis:

“Exposing the absurd and feral truths of motherhood, Nightbitch is a darkly comedic telling of an unnamed woman and former artist, thrust into stay-at-home domesticity after the birth of her son, who becomes increasingly worried and convinced that she may be turning into a dog.”

Heller’s debut was Sundance sensation “The Diary of a Teenage Girl.” This was followed by the critically-acclaimed “Can You Ever Forgive Me.” She then dabbled into mainstream filmmaking with the mostly-enjoyable “A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood.”

“NightBitch” will bring Heller back to her darker cinematic roots. It’s definitely being added to our 2023 must-see list.
