A24 films’ newest muse is a 17-year–old YouTuber. Yes, you read that right – the studio behind some of the most-talked about films of the last decade (Midsommar, Hereditary, Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Whale) has acquired the film rights to viral internet sensation ‘The Backrooms’, created by high-schooler Kane Parsons.
It seems A24 is continuing to broaden their horror slate, having also just acquired Australian film Talk to Me after its premiere at Sundance.
