Writer/Director Ti West completes his X trilogy with MaXXXine, a sequel to both X and Pearl that will bring Mia Goth’s title character into 1980s Hollywood. A24 has unveiled the brand new trailer this morning, giving us a first look at the ’80s set horror movie.
The film is coming to theaters nationwide on July 5, 2024.
Watch the exciting new trailer for Ti West and Mia Goth’s MaXXXine below, which features an impressive ensemble cast, an earworm soundtrack, and teases of violent ’80s horror.
MaXXXine‘s cast includes Halsey, Elizabeth Debicki, Moses Sumney, Michelle Monaghan, Bobby Cannavale, Lily Collins, Giancarlo Esposito, and Kevin Bacon.
“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.”
Bloody Disgusting spoke with Ti West previously about his trilogy. He teased of his trilogy’s third installment, ““What I can tell you is that we’re going to catch up with Maxine. And we’re going to find out what she’s up to. The way that X is a movie that is informed by and affected by independent exploitation auteur Americana and 1970s cinema, and Pearl is perhaps affected by the Golden Age of Hollywood and the glitz and glamor of cinema, MaXXXine will be more about within the industry itself and the boom of VHS.”
“It’s the best script of the three by far. It’s going be the best movie of the three,” Goth recently told Variety, teasing a third installment that may even outdo the previous two.
Goth continued, “It’s the biggest story of the three with the highest stakes and Maxine has gone through so much at this point. So when we find her in this new world, she’s just a force to be reckoned with and she goes through some pretty wild adventures.”
MaXXXine was produced by Jacob Jaffke, Ti West, Kevin Turen, Harrison Kreiss, and Mia Goth.
Will Maxine finally become a star? We’ll have to wait until summer to find out.
