Christian Slater and Geena Davis Cast in Zoë Kravitz's Film Drama PUSSY ISLAND
Several new cast members have joined the cast of the star-studded drama Pussy Island, from actress Zoë Kravitz (The Batman) in her directorial debut. Newcomers to the project include Christian Slater (Heathers, Mr. Robot), Geena Davis (Thelma & Louise, Beetlejuice), Alia Shawkat (Arrested Development, Search Party), and Haley Joel Osment (The Sixth Sense), as well as Liz Caribel Sierra (God’s Time), Levon Hawke (The Crowded Room), Trew Mullen (Sunny Family Cult), Saul Williams (Akilla’s Escape), Cris Costa, and Kyle MacLachlan (Blue Velvet).
The actors join an ensemble that also includes Naomi Ackie, Channing Tatum, and Simon Rex, as previously announced.
The MGM genre pic written by Kravitz and E.T. Feigenbaum “follows Frida (Ackie), a young and clever Los Angeles cocktail waitress who has her eyes set on the prize: philanthropist and tech mogul Slater King (Tatum). When she skillfully maneuvers her way into King’s inner circle and ultimately an intimate gathering on his private island, she is ready for a journey of a lifetime. Despite the epic setting, beautiful people, ever-flowing champagne and late-night dance parties, Frida can sense that there’s more to this island than meets the eye. Something she can’t quite put her finger on. Something terrifying.”
Maybe the fact that’s it’s called Pussy Island should have tipped her off. This is a stellar cast, and I am intrigued. I’m still holding out complete commitment to the excitement until I see more though. The film is currently in production in Mexico. Are you interested in this story?
