Oscar winner Nicole Kidman is diving into darkness with Osgood Perkins’ latest nightmare, The Young People. Production is underway in Vancouver, with a planned 2026 release via Neon.

The chilling ensemble also stars Lola Tung, Nico Parker, Brendan Hines, Cush Jumbo, Heather Graham, Johnny Knoxville, Lexi Minetree, Lily Collias, and Tatiana Maslany.

Plot details are tightly under wraps, but whispers suggest a story of school friends, one of whom descends into disturbing, possibly cosmic horror-fueled behavior. Fans should brace for psychological terror with a cosmic twist.

The Young People is co-financed by Neon and Lyrical Media, with Perkins producing alongside Chris Ferguson for Phobos and Brian Kavanaugh-Jones for Range. This marks Perkins’ fourth collaboration with Neon in just three years, following Longlegs, The Monkey, and the upcoming Keeper.

If his past films are any indication, The Young People promises creeping dread, shocking twists, and mind-bending horror that will linger long after the credits roll.
