A24 and Ti West’s upcoming prequel film was announced after the world premiere of X at South by Southwest (SXSW).
A24 will be releasing X nationwide this Friday. Exclusive prequel footage will be available only in theaters.
The film, which was shot in secret on location in New Zealand, is currently in post-production.
X had its world premiere last night at the SXSW Film Festival where it was heralded as, “a rare ‘Chainsaw’ homage that earns its fear” by Variety. CinemaBlend said “with a wicked sense of humor, a lust for sex and blood, and its heart on its sleeve, X is Ti West’s monstrous return to feature filmmaking” and A.V. Club called it “bloody, ballsy fun.
The film is written and directed by Ti West with Mia Goth (Emma, Suspiria) reprising her X role.
The film is produced by A24, Jacob Jaffke (Jamie Marks is Dead, The House of the Devil), Harrison Kreiss (“Euphoria”, Pieces of a Woman) and Kevin Turen (All is Lost, The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent), and executive produced by Goth, Dennis Cummings (A Man Named Scott, “Entergalactic”), Sam Levinson (“Euphoria,” Assassination Nation), Ashley Levinson (Those Who Wish Me Dead, The Green Knight), Karina Manashil (“Entergalactic”), Scott Mescudi (Malcolm & Marie, X) and Peter Phok (In A Valley of Violence, Stake Land).
