‘Feast’ Trio Reteaming for ‘Piranha 3DD’!
Some very exciting news this afternoon as Dimension Films has set John Gulager to direct and Saw IV-VII scribes Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan to write Piranha 3 DD (get it, “Double D”?), the sequel to last summer’s toothy fish fest that’s aiming for release in August of 2011 (will Dimension take on Final Destination once again?) Deadline reports that for the sequel, Dimension’s Bob Weinstein has reassembled the team behind Feast (now on Blu-ray), the Dimension horror film that served as a season of the TV show “Project Greenlight.” The director and writers got their starts on that low-budget horror film. Gulager went on to direct two Feast sequels while the scribes moved on to write four installments of the Saw franchise. They recently set an updated version of the classic anthology series The Outer Limits at MGM. Oh yeah, and before I forget: REAL-F*CKING-3D!
The third installment in Ti West’s trilogy, A24 will be releasing X and Pearl follow-up MaXXXine in theaters July 5, and the official poster has arrived from A24 this morning.
With her past catching up to her, Maxine attempts to make it big as a superstar in mid-80s Hollywood in the upcoming MaXXXine. Check out the brand new poster art below.
Mia Goth stars alongside Elizabeth Debicki, Moses Sumney, Michelle Monaghan, Bobby Cannavale, Halsey, Lily Collins, Giancarlo Esposito, Sophia Thatcher, and Kevin Bacon.
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.
