"Pic will be a psychological thriller in the vein of Black Swan and Misery, set in London’s contemporary music scene. Leroux’s depiction of a destructive relationship remains, as will a dark love story, but the movie intends to upend the romanticism associated with previous interpretations, and instead lean into the suspense and horror that was a big part of the book."

I'm not enthusiastic about a version that wants to place "horror" above "romance." But I won't condemn it unseen. However, if they give it the traditional "horror film" ending (like the Lon Chaney movie) then I will condemn it! It's possible the blurb is aimed at convincing people that this is something different from ALW.
