M. Night Shyamalan has brought on screenwriter Chris Sparling to write a new thriller he is producing under his producing banner The Night Chronicles. This is the second film project Shyamalan has set up under his new genre lable. 

The film is called Twelve Strangers and it’s described as a thriller that involves a jury deliberating a case involving the supernatural.

Sparling wrote the indie film Buried, which was incredibly well written. Buried was directed by Rodrigo Cortes and stars Ryan Reynolds. The movie follows Reynolds character who is kidnapped and buried alive. I saw the movie up at sundance, and I loved it. 

Twelve Strangers has a very interesting concept, and I think Sparling will do a great job developing the script for it.
