In an interview with Les Inrocks folks, Apichatpong Weerasethakul revealed that his upcoming project, the tentatively titled The Fountains of Paradise, is unlikely to begin shooting until 2026. The Thai filmmaker shared that he is currently in the process of writing, scouting locations, and essentially discovering the essence of the film in real time — no logline was offered. So we see this as a potential 2027 release. Tilda Swinton, with whom Weerasethakul expressed a desire to collaborate on many future projects, will star in their second film together, set against the backdrop of Sri Lanka.
