Cast
Production
Caddo Lake is a thriller film written and directed by filmmaking duo Celine Held and Logan George. In August 2021, Dylan O'Brien and Eliza Scanlen were in talks to star in the film, then titled Vanishings,[1] and a casting call was released, revealing M. Night Shyamalan would produce under his production label Blinding Edge Pictures.[2] By October 2021, O'Brien and Scanlen were set to star in the film, which had been retitled to The Vanishings at Caddo Lake, and Lauren Ambrose, Eric Lange, Sam Hennings, and Diana Hopper had joined the cast, with filming beginning on October 4 in Shreveport, Louisiana.[3] [4] Held and George sought 1998–2004 period-specific vehicles from locals in order to produce an authentic feel to the story's community.[5] Filming wrapped on November 18, 2021. By May 2023, the title was shortened to Caddo Lake.[6]
