Francis Lee, the man behind God's Own Country and this year's Ammonite, is already cooking up his next film. And, according to a new profile of the director in Esquire, he's recruiting Country star Josh O'Connor to appear again.

Lee is keeping the details under wraps for now, but we do know it's a novel adaptation and that, "it’s a horror movie with strong elements of 'class and queerness', about a sad young man alone in an epic wilderness."

O'Connor's role is equally mysterious for now, but the actor, who hit even higher levels thanks to his portrayal of Prince Charles in The Crown. The idea of them reuniting is certainly welcome, given how well it worked out in God's Own Country.
