Luca Guadagnino Casts Doubt on His American Psycho Adaptation
Summary
The director's noncommittal answer leaves the Lionsgate project in limbo, though the studio has not declared it dead.
"Luca Guadagnino offered an uncertain update on his planned adaptation of American Psycho, telling an interviewer, ""Maybe one day I would do it,"" when asked about the project, Dread Central reported Friday. The comment suggests the film is not moving forward anytime soon.
Lionsgate has not announced that the project is canceled. In August, actor Drew Starkey, who had been rumored for the role of Patrick Bateman, said he had read the script. Guadagnino has stayed busy elsewhere: his OpenAI drama Artificial premiered at the New York Film Festival on October 5, followed by a BFI London Film Festival gala on October 11."
