Josh Hartnett and M. Night Shyamalan's daughter, Saleka, have been cast in Shyamalan's new movie.

Hartnett and Shyamalan’s R&B singer-songwriter daughter Saleka are both set for the project which was previously titled "Trap" but is now going under the name "Good Grades".

The project is said to be a psychological thriller set at a concert with Hartnett playing a father attending the concert with his child whilst Saleka plays a pop star.

Hartnett recently played a significant role in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer. He’s also known for starring in 1999’s The Virgin Suicides, 2001’s Pearl Harbor, 2001’s Black Hawk Down, 2005’s Sin City, 2006’s Lucky Number Slevin, 2007’s 30 Days of Night, and more.

Saleka, meanwhile, is an R&B singer-songwriter who released her debut album, Seance, in May 2023. She additionally recorded and released several songs for Servant, an Apple TV+ series that Shyamalan served as the showrunner on until the show ended in March 2023.

Since Shyamalan produces and finances his own movies, he was able to get a SAG interim agreement for Trap / Good Grades that is allowing the project to go into production despite the ongoing Screen Actors Guild strike. His daughter Ishana was also able to get a SAG Interim deal for her feature directorial debut, the gothic fairy tale The Watchers. That film is set up at Warner Bros. as well and has a June 7, 2024 theatrical release date.
