Eden, the new film starring Sydney Sweeney and Ana de Armas, has received an exciting update.

The survival thriller follows a group of people who venture to the Galápagos Islands to find the meaning of life, with the film "exploring the lengths that humans will go to in their quest for happiness".

The movie boasts a stacked cast also including Jude Law, Vanessa Kirby, Daniel Brühl, Richard Roxburgh, Felix Kammerer and Toby Wallace, and now director Ron Howard has confirmed via Instagram that filming has been completed.

"That's a wrap on Eden, our latest project," wrote the filmmaker, best known for directing Apollo 13 and A Beautiful Mind. "It was a challenging one, but our tremendous cast and crew made it a gratifying and even thrilling creative journey."

The film is reportedly based on a true story, with Noah Pink's script set to "explore the human condition in ways that are unexpected, absurd, humorous, sexy, but above all thrilling and deeply suspenseful".

Sweeney has two features currently playing on the big screen, with romcom Anyone But You being a sleeper hit ever since its release in December. She will also be seen in Madame Web, which sees her star alongside Dakota Johnson, Emma Roberts and Celeste O'Connor.

The Spider-Man spin-off follows Cassie Webb (Johnson), who is forced to confront her past in order to save three superpowered women (Sweeney, O'Connor and Isabela Merced) from the deadly Ezekiel Sims (Tahar Rahim).

Despite the film being widely panned thus far, Johnson revealed exclusively to Digital Spy that she would be interested in returning for a sequel, saying: "There is so much I would like to look at. If they want me to come back, then I will."

Eden is yet to receive a release window, while Madame Web is out now in cinemas.
