Nightmare Alley is Oscar winner del Toro’s follow-up to The Shape of Water, which won Best Picture. Del Toro will direct the pic from a script he co-wrote with Kim Morgan. 

The film is based on William Lindsay Gresham’s 1946 novel of the same name. This isn’t the first time the story is getting a feature adaptation – Nightmare Alley was previously made into a film in 1947 starring actor Tyrone Power.

The story follows an ambitious young con-man who joins a traveling carnival. But after the young man teams up with a female psychiatrist who is even more corrupt than he is, she ends up out-manipulating the manipulator.

Nightmare Alley is Cooper’s first role since his Oscar-nominated performance in A Star is Born. You can see Blanchett next in Richard Linklater’s Where’d You Go Bernadette?

This promising project tells the story of a corrupt conman who joins forces with an equally mischievous female psychiatrist. Their elaborate scheme eventually goes sideways after this femme fatale proves to be an even more masterful manipulator than her partner in crime.

Nightmare Alley is based on William Lindsay Gresham novel of the same name, and it already spawned one successful adaptation back in 1947. Instead of making a direct remake of this classic, Del Toro intends to offer his own take on Gresham’s intriguing book.

DiCaprio is in negotiations to portray an ambitious conman Stanton Carlisle, but he’s yet to officially accept the part. Oscar-winner has always been extremely picky when it comes to his roles, and we haven’t seen him on the big screen ever since The Revenant. He’ll finally make a comeback this year in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, alongside Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie.
