While his most recent film saw him steer into crime-thriller territory, delivering rip-roaring car chases and spins on the traditional heist movie, he’s about to venture even further from his comedy roots with his next film. Talking to Empire, Wright revealed his next project is a straight-up psychological horror-thriller – he cites Don’t Look Now and Roman Polanski's Repulsion as influences – set in London, and starring a female lead.

“I realised I had never made a film about central London – specifically Soho, somewhere I’ve spent a huge amount of time in the last 25 years,” Wright tells Empire in the new issue, out 24 January. “With Hot Fuzz and Shaun Of The Dead you make movies about places you’ve lived in. This movie is about the London I’ve existed in.” The film will shoot this summer from a screenplay co-written by Krysty Wilson-Cairns.

I have an unpleasant relationship with Wright's career. I've liked each of his films significantly less than the one that came before it.

Shaun of the Dead: masterpiece
Hot Fuzz: amazing
Scott Pilgrim: very good
The World's End: good
Baby Driver: Fine...? Once you get the editing show, damn that script was thin

Thank god Baby Driver 2 isn't his next. Curious to see what he'll do with horror

HN Entertainment can now exclusively reveal the film’s title will be Last Night In Soho.

We were able to confirm that production designer Marcus Rowland will yet again reunite with Edgar for Last Night In Soho. His credits include Shaun of The Dead, Attack The Block, Hot Fuzz, Scott Pilgrim vs The World, The World’s End, Baby Driver, Rocketman, and The Kid Who Would Be King.

The film’s cinematographer is expected to be Black Mirror: Banderstach’s Jake Polonsky, who worked as a second unit cinematographer on The World’s End.
