Amy Adams upcoming Nightbitch has been one of those projects we’ve become very excited for. The film is based on a novel by Rachel Yoder who has also penned the script for the film as well.

Searchlight Pictures Nightbitch finally has a release date with the studio announcing this morning that it’s coming to theaters December 6, 2024. Amy Adams, Scoot McNairy and Mary Holland also star.

“Nightbitch tells the story of a woman thrown into the stay-at-home routine of raising a toddler in the suburbs, who slowly embraces the feral power deeply rooted in motherhood, as she becomes increasingly aware of the bizarre and undeniable signs that she may be turning into a canine.”

Nightbitch is rated “R” for “language and some sexuality.” The film was directed by Marielle Heller. Heller has this to say about Rachel Yoder’s book.

“Rachel Yoder’s book took my breath away. I haven’t felt this way about [a] book since I read The Diary of a Teenage Girl many years ago,” Heller said in a statement. “Rachel’s darkly hilarious tale of motherhood and rage made me feel seen. And adapting it with Amy Adams in mind has been the thing that has kept me going through the pandemic. I am so thrilled to be bringing this movie to life with wonderful partners in Anne Carey, Annapurna Pictures, and Searchlight. It is a dream come true.”
