After “Emilia Pérez” scored a best picture nomination at last year’s Oscars, Netflix is reuniting with French director Jacques Audiard on his next project, which will be an elevated horror film.

Netflix has optioned “La Nuit ravagée” — a critically acclaimed horror novel by Jean-Baptiste Del Amo — and has tapped Audiard to develop a film adaptation, which will be a French-language Netflix original. Netflix had no comment.
