Ti West Reveals Third Installment of His X Horror Franchise with 1980s-Set Film MAXXXINE
Director Ti West recently announced that he’s making a third film for his X horror film franchise. The first two films, X and Pearl, will be followed up with a 1980s-set movie titled MaXXXine.
The new movie was unveiled during the Midnight Madness premiere at the Toronto Film Festival. A24 is producing the film and there’s a teaser trailer that was shared that you can watch below. Pearl was a prequel to X and MaXXXine will be a sequel.
The star of the first two films, Mia Goth, will be back and is “reprising one of the two roles she played in X.” The story follows Maxine (Goth), “after the events of X, as the sole survivor who continues her journey towards fame setting out to make it as an actress in 1980’s Los Angeles.”
The movie hasn’t started shooting yet, but it will soon and it’s on the fast track to production. The second film in the franchise, Pearl, is set to open in theaters on September 16th.
MaXXXine will be the finale installment of this X trilogy. Are you excited that we are getting a third film?
