Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence are set to star in an adaptation of Peter Cameron‘s 2020 horror mystery novel What Happens at Night.

Martin Scorsese will direct from a script written by Patrick Marber(Closer, Notes on a Scandal).

What Happens at Night is a dream-like story of a married American couple who travel to a small, snowy European town to adopt a baby.

They check into a cavernous, largely deserted hotel where they encounter an enigmatic cast of characters including a flamboyant chanteuse, a depraved businessman and a charismatic faith healer.

Nothing is quite as it seems in this strange, frozen world. As the couple struggle to claim their baby, the less they seem to know about themselves and the life they’ve built together.

Apple Original Films is reportedly negotiating to finance and produce with Studiocanal.

Deadline first reported on the adaptation.
