Ti West’s horror film series ‘X’ has become one of the most beloved sagas of the past few years, thanks to the stylish visuals, cinematography, cinematic references and, of course, Mia Goth’s breathtaking performances.
And, the trilogy is set to come to an end with ‘MaXXXine,’ also starring Goth. This time, the actress will reprise her role of Maxine, an aspiring movie actress that gets her big break in Hollywood in the 1980s. However, her career (and life) will be threatened by a serial killer terrorizing town.
Halsey, Lily Collins, Moses Sumney, Elizabeth Debicki, Bobby Cannavale, Michelle Monaghan, Kevin Bacon, and Giancarlo Esposito complete the cast. If you want to watch the previous movies before the premiere of ‘MaXXXine’ on July 5, check out where to watch them.
