After making his feature directorial debut with The Blackcoat\u2019s Daughter in 2015, he got his second film, I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House, out into the world just one year later. But then there was a four year wait for his third film, Gretel &amp; Hansel, and another four year wait for his fourth, Longlegs. Then he switched into maximum overdrive. His Stephen King adaptation The Monkey reached theatres just seven months after Longlegs, his movie <a href=\"https:\/\/www.joblo.com\/keeper-new-trailer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Keeper<\/a> is set to reach theatres on November 14th (nine months after The Monkey), and before Keeper is released, he has already started filming his next movie, The Young People!<\/p>\n<p>Two months ago, it was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.joblo.com\/the-young-people-osgood-perkins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announced<\/a> that Lola Tung (The Summer I Turned Pretty,\u00a0Forbidden Fruits) and Nico Parker (How to Train Your Dragon,\u00a0The Last of Us) star in the film \u2013 and an image of Tung was used to break the filming news on social media: <\/p>\n<p>An image of the script was also shared, and a glimpse of the top line of page 76 indicates that Perkins is entering Lovecraftian territory with this film, because there\u2019s a reference to \u201cThe Old Ones.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s all we have to go on, because the plot for\u00a0The Young People\u00a0is being kept secret.<\/p>\n<p>A few months ago, Perkins and his producing partner Chris Ferguson launched their production banner Phobos with backing from\u00a0Neon, signing a first-look deal with the company.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2025\/05\/neon-deal-longlegs-monkey-director-osgood-perkins-1236397205\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Deadline<\/a>\u00a0reported that, \u201cunder the first-look deal, Neon will house films that Perkins writes and directs, as well as those he produces for other filmmakers. Neon will release the features theatrically in the U.S. and represent the international rights.\u00a0Perkins will continue to work with producer Brian Kavanaugh-Jones of Range.\u201d The Young People is part that deal. Neon is co-financing the picture with Lyrical Media, with Perkins producing alongside Chris Ferguson and Brian Kavanaugh-Jones.<\/p>\n<p>Are you a fan of Osgood Perkins\u2019 work, and are you glad to hear that he has already gotten The Young People into production?
