A24 has announced the cast of MaXXXine, the third and final installment of the slasher horror saga X initiated by Ti West (The House of the Devil, The Innkeepers) with X and continued with the prequel Pearl.
The screenplay and direction of this latest installment of the trilogy is by Ti West.
Filming will begin this month while the release is scheduled for 2024.
As announced last September, in MaXXXine, Mia Goth (Marrowbone, Suspiria) plays the role of Maxine again after the events of X. The girl will continue to chase success by trying to be an actress in 1980s Los Angeles.
The actress will be joined by Kevin Bacon (The Man Without a Shadow), Elizabeth Debicki (The Web of Deception), Lily Collins (Ted Bundy - Criminal Charm), Giancarlo Esposito (The Usual Suspects), Michelle Monaghan (Blood), Bobby Cannavale (Ant-man), Moses Sumney, and Halsey.
We remember you that Pearl (2022) is the prequel to the horror slasher X (2022) and centers on the character Pearl, the elderly woman played by Mia Goth (Marrowbone, Suspiria) in the first chapter. In the prequel, however, we find the actress in the role of an ambitious young woman living with her parents, and the story takes place in 1918.
