While we wait for MaXXXine, the final film in director Ti West’s trilogy that kicked off with X and continued with Pearl, we’ve learned that X is headed to Netflix next month.
See where the story of Maxine and Pearl began when X hits Netflix on February 1.
From A24 and director Ti West (The Innkeepers, The Sacrament), 2022’s X stars Mia Goth (A Cure for Wellness, Suspiria, Emma), Brittany Snow (Prom Night, Pitch Perfect, Pitch Perfect 2), Jenna Ortega (“You,” 2022’s Scream, The Babysitter: Killer Queen), and Grammy Award® nominee Scott Mescudi (better known as Kid Cudi, Don’t Look Up).
In the 1979-set movie, “A group of actors set out to make an adult film in rural Texas under the noses of their reclusive hosts — an elderly couple with a farm and boarding house for rent. But when the couple catches their young guests in the act, the cast finds themselves in a desperate fight for their lives in this tantalizing slasher from writer-director Ti West.”
The same year’s Pearl, also directed by West and starring Goth, told the origin story of X‘s slasher villain Pearl, while MaXXXine will be a direct sequel to Maxine’s story from X.
A24 previews the final installment, “MaXXXine reverses the franchise’s trajectory through time to pick up with Maxine after the violent events of X, as the sole survivor continues her journey towards fame, setting out to make it as an actress in 1980s Los Angeles.”
