Hereditary and Midsommar Director's Next Film Will Be 4 Hours Long
Ari Aster, director of 2018’s thriller Hereditary and 2019’s Midsommar, has recently revealed that his next film will be a “nightmare comedy” that will be approximately four hours long.
In an interview with UC Santa Barbara’s Associated Students Program Board, the director discussed upcoming film projects and shared that he had just completed the draft of a movie intended for viewers over 17 that will be particularly long.
Hereditary, which follows the struggles of the Graham family as they experience a series of haunting and tragic occurrences after the death of their grandmother, runs close to the standard film length of two hours. The extended cut of Midsommar, on the other hand, has a runtime of nearly three hours. So it wouldn’t be completely surprising if Aster’s next movie actually does last for four hours, although it’s not clear if the director was joking or exaggerating in his statement.
The horror film Midsommar recounts the harrowing experience of a vacationing couple, who travel to a rural town in Sweden to enjoy the midsummer festival, only to find themselves caught up in an increasingly disturbing and violent competition run by a pagan cult. The project earned a number of nominations and awards, many for the performance of Florence Pugh, who played Dani.
