Danny Bensi and Saunder Jurriaans have signed on to score the upcoming psychological thriller The Wolf Hour. The film is written and directed by Alistair Banks Griffin (Two Gates of Sleep) and stars Naomi Watts, Jennifer Ehle, Kelvin Harrison Jr., Emory Cohen Brennan Brown and Jeremy Bobb. The movie revolves around a formerly celebrated counter-culture figure who now lives alone in her fifth floor South Bronx apartment, having all but cut herself off from the outside world during the 1977 “Summer of Sam.” Brian Kavanaugh-Jones (Sinister, Collide) and Bailey Conway Anglewicz are producing the project for Automatik Entertainment, alongside Bradley Pilz (6 Below: Miracle on the Mountain). The Wolf Hour is currently in post-production and is expected to premiere later this year.
Bensi & Jurriaans (The Gift, Enemy, Martha Marcy May Marlene, The One I Love) also have the crime thriller A Vigilante starring Olivia Wilde (premiering this month at the SXSW Film Festival), Matthew Ross’ Siberia starring Keanu Reeves and the documentaries Kailash and XY Chelsea coming up. The composers also continue to score Netflix’s Ozark, which will return for its second season later this year.
