Disney+ has unveiled its upcoming slate of programming for November. Among the titles announced is”Director By Night,” which will give fans a look at the making of the Marvel Studios Special Presentation,” Werewolf By Night”
“Director by Nigh” will explore the vision, style, and approach acclaimed composer Michael Giacchino took to bring this chilling story to life for his directorial debut. It will also give fans an insider’s look at the between-the-scenes making of “Werewolf By Nigh,” which premiered on Disney+ on October 7.
What’s, in my opinion, the MCU’s’s first true foray into horror” “Werewolf By Night” tells of a group of monster hunters who gather after the passing of their leader. In a strange and macabre memorial to the leader’s life, the attendees are thrust into a mysterious and deadly competition for a powerful relic called the bloodstone—a hunt that will ultimately bring them face to face with a dangerous monster.
Giacchino has a classic approach to horror, believing, “Horror is all about what you don’t know and what you think is about to happen or what you think you see or what you think you hear… That was the goal from day one on this project.”
He adds, “For me, some of the scariest things I saw as a kid watching old movies on ‘creature double feature’ were just the shadows. If you saw a shadow creep by a wall, whether it was a defined shadow of a particular creature or just an amorphous shape, that was always so much scarier than anything that you could literally show me on screen. And that’s what I kept thinking about. How do we do that? How do we embrace that idea?”
“Director by Night” will premiere on Disney+ on November 4.
