George MacKay and Lily-Rose Depp Think They're Animals in Trailer for WOLF

Focus Features released a trailer for an interesting new film titled Wolf, and it tells a weird story of a group of people who think they’re animals and are in some kind of mental clinic to help cure them through “increasingly extreme forms of 'curative' therapies.”

The film stars George MacKay (1917) who identifies as a wolf, and Lily-Rose Depp (The King), who identifies as a wildcat. The synopsis reads:

Believing he is a wolf trapped in a human body, Jacob (George MacKay) eats, sleeps, and lives like a wolf – much to the shock of his family. When he's sent to a clinic, Jacob and his animal-bound peers are forced to undergo increasingly extreme forms of 'curative' therapies. However, once he meets the mysterious Wildcat (Lily-Rose Depp), and as their friendship blossoms into an undeniable infatuation, Jacob is faced with a challenge: will he renounce his true self for love.

The rest of the cast for the film includes Paddy Considine, Martin McCann, Terry Notary, Fionn O'Shea, Eileen Walsh, Lola Petticrew, and Senan Jennings. The movie was directed by Nathalie Biancheri (Nocturnal) and this certainly looks like a unique movie.

MacKay is a super talented talented actor, and this is definitely a different kind of role for him. The movie is set to be released on December 3rd, 2021.
