Ari Aster (born July 15, 1986) is an American filmmaker. After garnering initial recognition for the short film The Strange Thing About the Johnsons (2011), he became best known for writing and directing the feature films Hereditary (2018) and Midsommar (2019), both released by A24, making a name as a filmmaker of elevated horror. After pivoting away from the genre with Beau Is Afraid (2023), his next film, Eddington, premiered in competition at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival. His films are notable for their unsettling combination of horror, dark comedy, and graphic violence. He co-founded the production company Square Peg with Danish producer Lars Knudsen in 2019.

Higurashi: When They Cry (Hollywood Adaptation)

Just one week until Higurashi Sotsu. And yes, this is very unnecessary and a very stupid idea. But yeah, if some hate/dislike japanese actors playing Higurashi characters, why not make it an all american cast ? With some diversity of course. And yeah you already know the story and the plot, and y'all already saw me and younglord's japanese version for the castings. This is the american version of my Higurashi casting so, enjoy.
