Actor Zoe Kravitz makes her directorial debut with psychological thriller Blink Twice, and here’s the trailer.
Actor Zoe Kravitz has turned filmmaker, having teamed up with ET Feigenbaum for Blink Twice, her directorial debut which initially went under the title Pussy Island. It hasn’t been confirmed exactly what prompted the name change, but we didn’t spot any cats in the trailer.
Anyway, the synopsis reads as follows:
When tech billionaire Slater King (Channing Tatum) meets cocktail waitress Frida (Naomi Ackie) at his fundraising gala, sparks fly. He invites her to join him and his friends on a dream vacation on his private island. It’s paradise. Wild nights blend into sun soaked days and everyone’s having a great time. No one wants this trip to end, but as strange things start to happen, Frida begins to question her reality. There is something wrong with this place. She’ll have to uncover the truth if she wants to make it out of this party alive.
The cast also includes Christian Slater, Simon Rex, Adria Arjona, Kyle MacLachlan, Haley Joel Osment, Geena Davis and Alia Shawkat.
Zoe Kravitz is best known for her roles in the Divergent and Fantastic Beasts franchises, as well as a lead role in glossy HBO drama Big Little Lies. She recently starred opposite Robert Pattinson as Selina Kyle/Catwoman in 2022 film The Batman. It has not been confirmed if she will reprise the role for the sequel, which is scheduled to be released inn 2026, but she will next star opposite Thomasin McKenzie in horror Self-Portrait.
Kravitz also stars in High Fidelity (which Feigenbaum wrote) the television series based on Nick Hornby’s book of the same name and the 2000 film starring John Cusack.
