While we're all sitting on our hands waiting for Timothee Chalamet to hit his mid-20s so they can get around to shooting the Call Me By Your Name sequel already (did you see my video of author Andre Aciman talking about it?) it looks like film director Luca Guadagnino is finding something else to do, with his hands that is -- Luca has finally (informally) announced what his next movie will be, now that his remake of Suspiria's out there knocking our brains and eyeballs for loops. 

It's called Blood on the Tracks and yes it's called that after the 1975 Bob Dylan record, which will serve as the "inspiration" for the film...

Guadagnino has talked about this project before (right here) but it's news that this is what he's doing next, and it's news that the first actor he's intent on hiring is Chloe Grace Moretz, who had a small but pivotal role in Suspiria. Luca likes to re-team with the people he likes.

What else do we know? It's set in the 1970s but over a period of several years (it's always important to know the period Luca's films will be set in so we can start drooling about the costumes) and the script (by the vastly underrated Richard LaGravenese) clocks in at 188 pages, which is a long one. Oh and according to LaGravenese the script is about "passion" and "repression" which, you know, sounds to me like A Luca Guadagnino Joint. Now let's get Tilda in there and going.
