Goodnight Mommy is moving forward at Amazon Studios with Naomi Watts attached to star, per
Variety. Funnily enough, this isn t the first time Watts will be starring in an English-language remake of an Austrian horror movie, having previously starred in the remake of
Funny Games, though that film has the distinction of being directed by original director Michael Haneke. Matt Sobel (
Take Me To The River) is directing the film from a script by Kyle Warren.
