M. Night Shyamalan is best known for his sci-fi/horror films that often feature an unexpected twist ending. He’s made a name for himself since the release of THE SIXTH SENSE in 1999, but did you know that he’s also dabbled in writing teen rom-coms?

That’s right: the master of the twist ending recently revealed that shortly before the release of his blockbuster, THE SIXTH SENSE, Shyamalan was a ghost-writer for the hit teen movie, SHE’S ALL THAT, which was released the same year!

SHE’S ALL THAT stars Rachael Leigh-Cook as an unpopular high school student who is given a make-over by the most popular guy in school, who was played by Freddie Prinze Jr. The movie was a hit and also featured early performances by Kieran Culkin (SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD) and Anna Paquin (TRUE BLOOD)!

Considering his career was built on movies that deal with regular people dealing with extraordinary situations like seeing ghosts, aliens or mythical creatures, it’s a huge surprise that Shyamalan was once a part of something as straight forward and formulaic as a teen movie!
