Neon has acquired the North American distribution rights to “The Unknown” (“L’Inconnue”), which stars Palme d’Or winner Léa Seydoux (“Dune: Part Two,” “The Beast”), the distributor announced on Friday.
The film will be written and directed by Academy Award winner Arthur Harari. Neon will theatrically release “The Unknown” in U.S. and Canada in 2026. It will be produced by bathysphere, with Pathé co-producing and selling the film internationally in Cannes. Plot details are being kept under wraps.
“The Unknown” is the third feature both written and directed by Harari, the Academy Award-winning screenwriter of Justine Triet’s “Anatomy of a Fall,” for which he also won a BAFTA and a Golden Globe.
