The Turning is a 2020 American supernatural horror film directed by Floria Sigismondi, co-produced by Roy Lee, Scott Bernstein and Seth William Meier, and written by Carey and Chad Hayes. It is a modern adaptation of the 1898 ghost story The Turn of the Screw by Henry James.[3] Steven Spielberg also serves as an executive producer. It stars Mackenzie Davis, Finn Wolfhard, Brooklynn Prince, and Joely Richardson.
The film first entered development in March 2016 and was described as a passion project for Steven Spielberg, who wanted to be involved in a horror film again. The film adaptation went through two phases of production: first as Haunted with Juan Carlos Fresnadillo attached as director, then renamed as The Turning with Sigismondi.
