Edgar Wright to Direct Psychological Horror Film

British director Edgar Wright, in an interview with Empire magazine, revealed that he's prepping a psychological horror-thriller.

Wright cited Don't Look Now and Roman Polanski's Repulsion as influences for the film, which would be London-set, and with a female lead.

"I realized I had never made a film about central London - specifically Soho, somewhere I've spent a huge amount of time in the last 25 years," Wright said. "With Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead, you make movies about places you've lived in. This movie is about the London I've existed in."

The film does not yet have a title and is set to shoot this summer. The screenplay was co-written by Krysty Wilson-Cairns, writer on Penny Dreadful and upcoming WWI film, 1917.

Wright also confirmed there is a possibility for a sequel to his hit film, Baby Driver saying, "A first draft of Baby Driver 2 exists," and that it would introduce new characters.
