Do you know what is real? Do you know who to trust? Director James Ward Byrkit’s science fiction thriller Coherence was released in 2013 and a follow-up film is on the way.
Deadline reports that James Ward Byrkit and producer Kate Andrews (This is what’s inside) develop “functional monitoring for Coherence”, with Byrkit returning to write and direct.
Deadline notes in today’s exclusive report: “Plot details are being kept under lock and key, including whether the new film will be a prequel, sequel, or an entirely different story.”
James Ward Byrkit will write the screenplay alongside Alex Manugian.
He tells Deadline: “I’ve been inundated with proposals for sequels and offers for remakes since the film came out, but nothing ever inspired us until Kate Andrews sent me an email with two words that unlocked the box. So either Kate is a genius or she’s from a parallel reality where Alex and I already wrote this and she’s pitching us our own movie.
In Coherence, a comet passes overhead during a dinner party among eight friends, setting off a strange chain of events. Meagan Navarro recently wrote here on Bloody Disgusting: “A less-is-more-cerebral sci-fi thriller, Coherence manipulates time to weave a mind-bending story that focuses on how the decisions we make define us.
Meagan’s review of the sci-fi film continues: “The choices these characters tend to make are as frustrating as they are fascinating. With Emily Baldoni as the main protagonist, relationships collapse under the weight of the fluidity of reality, creating tension and an unsettling atmosphere. If you like solving puzzles, this is the choice for you.
