“I need to be famous, Wayne. All the best people are.”
These words, spoken by Mia Goth’s character in the just-released trailer for X, will seemingly prove prescient for a group of filmmakers who find themselves in an unenviable position in a middle-of-nowhere area of Texas.
The new A24-distributed film is helmed by Ti West, a name that should be familiar to horror fans as the same director behind a number of memorable genre entries, including the 2009 gem The House of the Devil.
Joining Goth in the cast are Scott Mescudi, Brittany Snow, Jenna Ortega, Martin Henderson, Owen Campbell, and Stephen Ure.
X is out March 18. Up top, catch the new trailer.
For Jenna Ortega, X marks just one of the horror entires on her 2022 lineup. This Friday, she’ll be seen in the fifth entry in the Scream franchise, the final trailer for which arrived earlier this week.
