What is Goodnight Mommy?
When twin brothers arrive home to find their mother’s demeanor altered and face covered in surgical bandages, they begin to suspect the woman beneath the gauze might not be their mother.
Goodnight Mommy cast and crew
Naomi Watts inherits the role of the mother from Susanne Wuest in the “Goodnight Mommy” remake. In a way, this brings Watts full circle to where her own career really took off 20 years ago when she starred in another horror remake, “The Ring.” She played the lead in David Lynch’s “Mulholland Drive” the year before that, but “The Ring,” based on the 1998 Japanese film “Ringu,” was a $250 million blockbuster that really put her and J-horror on the map for Western audiences.
Cameron Corvetti, known for his role as Homelander’s super-powered son on “The Boys,” and his real-life twin Nicholas Crovetti (who co-starred with him on HBO’s “Big Little Lies”), will play the brothers in “Goodnight Mommy.” The original Austrian film was mostly a three-hander, but it did have a few supporting parts, and some or all of those in the remake will be filled by Jeremy Bobb, Crystal Lucas-Perry, and Peter Hermann. Prime Video’s “Goodnight Mommy” remake is written by Kyle Warren and directed by Matt Sobel.
