Next Door is produced by Joe Hipps’ A24-based Cut To. A24 originally acquired Boyd’s spec script on behalf of Cut To last year in a nine-way studio bidding war, sources say. As the indie studio regularly does, it developed the project internally and attached Thompson before taking it out.
Plot details are under wraps, but we hear Next Door is a dark comedic thriller about marriage and paranoia in the modern American suburbs, inspired by movies in the vein of Little Children and Rear Window.
