M. Night Shayamalan set to write and direct 1000 A.E.: Will Smith and Jayden Smith to join cast

M. Night Shayamalan last directed The Last Airbender. The metaphysical movie scored $300 million in the worldwide box office. According to Entertainment Weekly, M. Night Shayamalan will write and direct a futuristic horror movie 1000 A.E., a movie set 1000 years into the future.

The movie is a cross between an end of the world and metaphysical theme. M. Night will also have access to a superstar actor in Will Smith and up and coming star in son Jayden Smith. The father and son duo enabled The Pursuit of Happyness movie to score a big hit in 2006. M. Night is famously known for adding a top Hollywood star to his movies.

Bruce Willis starred in both The Sixth Sense and Unbreakable. Mel Gibson carried the movie load along with Joaquin Phoenix in Signs. Joaquin Phoenix again starred in The Village with Academy Award winner Adrien Brody and Alien's star Sigourney Weaver. Paul Giamatti filled The Lady in the Water movie role. Mark Wahlberg played the role as a high school teacher in the horror movie The Happening.

Will Smith has starred in many blockbuster movies. We can count on the M. Night and Will Smith tandem to deliver the box office goods. For the most part, end of the world movies are in high demand.
There is no movie release date set for the 1000 A.E. futuristic end of the world movie.

Sony Pictures appears to have already green lighted the horror movie project. According to EW, M. Night Shayamalan noted that working with Will Smith on a horror movie is his "dream project". We all know that Will Smith performed great in his last zombie horror blockbuster movie I Am Legend.

Will Smith and M. Night Shayamalan movie fans can expect a great end of the world horror movie in the near future. M. Night Shayamalan's 1000 A.E. will star Will Smith and his son Jayden Smith.

Metaphysical Movies with M. Night Shayamalan

Have you ever noticed that M. Night Shayamalan's movies feature metaphysical themes? M. Night writes and directs metaphysical movies which are extremely successful in the box office. Do you want to watch metaphysical movies? M. Night Shayamalan makes good metaphysical movies.

M. Night Shayamalan launched his Hollywood career with The Sixth Sense. Bruce Willis starred in The Sixth Sense, a movie about a young boy who has the sixth sense to communicate with dead people. During the time The Sixth Sense reached the movie theaters in 1999, the movie immediately transformed M. Night into an instant celebrity.

The Sixth Sense crossed the $200 million domestic box office mark, and then continued to surge ahead to land at $293 million in box office ticket sales. M. Night sold his Unbreakable screenplay to Disney soon after The Sixth Sense surpassed the $100 million mark. I'm sure the Disney executives never thought The Sixth Sense would reach $293 million in total ticket sales in the U.S. Box Office.

M. Night's movies are all metaphysical themes which are virtually impossible (physical sense) except for The Sixth Sense movie. For the most part, psychic mediums can communicate with the dead. If you want to watch good metaphysical movies, check out M. Night Shayamalan's film resume.

M. Night Shayamalan's movies

  • The Sixth Sense
  • Unbreakable
  • Signs
  • The Village
  • Lady in the Water
  • The Happening
  • The Last Airbender
You may question what metaphysical themes are within these movies. Metaphysical movies are essentially movies beyond reality. If Aliens arrive on Earth tomorrow, then Alien movies will fall under nonfiction. There is no physical proof to suggest that a child can communicate with the dead. Psychic children are know to share their experiences with the dead, but these are mostly personal accounts rather than physical evidence. 

No person is strong enough to withstand a train accident which no living survivor surfaces beyond Bruce Willis. Recently, a few children have survived plane accidents where all passengers were killed. The Village depicts a town that resides in another portal.

 In reality, there is no such thing as a hidden village. Lady in the Water is about a mermaid from a fairy tale world that is trapped within the physical world. The Happening portrays the trees as deadly to humans. Lastly, The Last Airbender chronicles a young Avatar that must save the nations from its demise. 

M. Night Shayamalan makes movies about metaphysics. His metaphysical movies are consistent with themes beyond physical. We view these movies as we do with I Am Number Four, Knowing, Insidious, Sucker Punch, Source Code, and other metaphysical movies.  Thanks for reading.
