Concord Originals is set to howl with ‘Wolf at the Door’, a werewolf pic that’s a retelling of ‘Little Red Riding Hood’.
Grandma better say her prayers, because there’s a Wolf at the Door.
Variety reports that Concord Originals is developing the supernatural gothic horror feature based on the play from Concord Theatricals, part of a trilogy of theatrical productions inspired by Latinx mythology and the Brothers Grimm fairy tales.
Here’s the official synopsis: “Set in 19th-century New Mexico, it centers on a young woman, close to giving birth to her first child, who foretells the return of a malevolent half-man, half-wolf creature, only to discover that another predator has already entrenched itself in her hacienda.”
I’m sorry, but another predator besides the werewolf? This sounds like an intriguing take on the classic Brothers Grimm fairy tale, Little Red Riding Hood.
Of course, Wolf at the Door is far from the first adaptation to tackle the story. Company of Wolves delivers perhaps the best interpretation, while others like the Amanda Seyfried flick Red Riding Hood, well…they exist, I guess.
Like the mark of the wolf, the film is another signal that werewolves are back, with Robert Eggers Werwulf on the way, following films such as this year’s The Cycle (one of my favs of 2026).
Argentinian director Agustina San Martín (Psyche) will helm the pic from a script by Marisela Treviño Orta, who wrote the play.
Producers are Sophia Dilley and Charles Hopkins for Concord Originals. Quíle Miguel Gomez, Victor Zaraya, and Bob Valentine will executive produce for the studio.
