MaXXXine: Release date, cast, trailer and latest news
Ti West and Mia Goth are uniting once again.
Mia Goth’s iconic character will soon be back on our screens in MaXXXine, the third instalment in Ti West’s horror trilogy.
And now the official trailer has dropped, teasing a violent and action-packed ending to the blood-spattered series.
The trilogy kicked off in 2022 with X, the slasher film which revolves around a massacre on the set of an adult film at the hands of a homicidal elderly couple.
Prequel movie Pearl then landed six months later, telling the origin story of X’s villain, Pearl (Goth).
And now MaXXXine will serve as a direct sequel to X, with Goth reprising her role as Maxine Minx.
Set about six years after the events of X, MaXXXine takes place in Hollywood in 1985, and follows former porn star Maxine as she goes to great lengths to break into acting, all while a serial killer is on the loose.
"It’s going be the best movie of the three," Goth previously told Variety. "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 release date
The film is set to land in UK cinemas on 9th August 2024.
Fans in the US will be pleased to hear it's set to release a few weeks earlier, and will be available to watch in cinemas from 5th July.
