Hailee Steinfeld Joins the Cast of Ryan Coogler’s Mysterious Vampire Movie
We still don’t have a title or plot synopsis for Ryan Coogler’s (Creed, Black Panther) mysterious vampire movie starring Michael B. Jordan, but THR brings us more casting news.
The latest big name to join the cast is Hailee Steinfeld (Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse), who joins the recently announced Wunmi Mosaku, Delroy Lindo and Jack O’Connell.
Warner Bros. has set a March 7, 2025 release date for the untitled project.
The Hollywood Reporter notes in this latest report, “Insiders say the feature is set in the Jim Crow-era South and possibly involves both vampires and Southern supernatural traditions.”
Additionally, “Michael B. Jordan may even be playing dual roles — as twin brothers.”
Ryan Coogler wrote the script and will be directing the film. Producing alongside Coogler are Zinzi Coogler and Sev Ohanian. Stay tuned for more on this mysterious film as we learn it.
One of this summer’s most hotly anticipated new movies is A24 and Ti West’s MaXXXine, a follow-up to X and Pearl that brings Mia Goth’s title character into the 1980s.
With her past catching up to her, Maxine attempts to make it big as a superstar in Hollywood, 1985. While you wait, check out a new image below courtesy of USA Today this week.
Releasing in theaters on July 5, 2024, MaXXXine is rated “R” for…
“Strong violence, gore, sexual content, graphic nudity, language and drug use.”
If you missed the official trailer, you can watch it right here.
Mia Goth stars alongside Elizabeth Debicki, Moses Sumney, Michelle Monaghan, Bobby Cannavale, Halsey, Lily Collins, Giancarlo Esposito and Kevin Bacon in MaXXXine.
Here’s the official plot synopsis from A24 this week: “In 1980s Hollywood, adult film star and aspiring actress Maxine Minx finally gets her big break. But as a mysterious killer stalks the starlets of Hollywood, a trail of blood threatens to reveal her sinister past.”
Last we saw Maxine in Ti West’s X (2022), she was the sole survivor of a massacre carried out by elderly couple Howard and Pearl in the Summer of ’79. Goth of course pulled double duty as the villain Pearl in that movie, who got her own origin story in Pearl (2022). Pearl and Maxine are different characters, but they share the common goal of wanting to be stars.
Will Maxine finally make it in Hollywood? Or will the demons of her past become her ultimate downfall? With the Night Stalker roaming free, we expect MaXXXine to get wild this summer.
