That’s Tilda Swinton in the Suspiria Remake?!
Amazon Studios’ remake of Dario Argento’s classic Italian horror film Suspiria is one that has many fans feeling concern and trepidation. After all, while there are some fantastic horror remakes, the majority have failed to capture the spirit of the originals, giving something that felt like it was a cash grab rather than an honest, earnest attempt at creating something interesting with the source material, à la Dawn of the Dead.
Still, there’s a fantastic cast associated with the film, including Chloë Grace Moretz, Mia Goth, Dakota Johnson, and Tilda Swinton, who was recently spotted on set looking very different than usual, thanks to a heavy dose of makeup that turned her into a geriatric crone.

Suspiria is written by David Kajganich, who adapts the “remake” from Argento and Daria Nicolodi’s original script, and directed by Luca Guadagnino.
Frenesy Film Company, Mythology Entertainment, First Sun Films, and Memo Films produce. Guadagnino, Brad Fischer, Kajganich, Francesco Melzi d’Eril, Marco Morabito, Gabriele Moratti, William Sherak, and Silvia Venturini Fendi are producers on the title while James Vanderbilt, Paul Deason, Massimiliano Violante, and Carlo Antonelli exec produce.
Amazon Studios picked up the project last year for worldwide distribution rights and is financing production.
Argento’s original, which was laden with the supernatural, witches, and a lot of blood, marked the beginning of the director’s “Three Mothers” trilogy, which was followed by Inferno (1980) and The Mother of Tears (2007).
Synopsis:
Suspiria is based on a young American ballet dancer who travels to a prestigious dance academy in Europe, only to discover it is something far more sinister and supernatural. She becomes increasingly terrified after a series of gruesome murders ensue and she slowly unravels the dark history of the academy.
