20 Upcoming Horror Movies That Made PERFECT Casting Choices
4. Gillian Anderson - Teenage Sex And Death At Camp Miasma
Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma is the hotly anticipated new film from the brilliant Jane Schoenbrun (I Saw the TV Glow), and follows Kris (Hannah Einbinder), a young queer filmmaker who is hired to reboot the slasher franchise Camp Miasma.
Kris soon enough becomes obsessed with the idea of casting Billy Preston (Gillian Anderson), the reclusive actress who played the Final Girl in the original Camp Miasma, leading the duo into a psychosexual odyssey.
Anderson has proven time and time again that she's one of the finest actors of her generation, but this film marks her first major foray into horror - and it sure is long overdue.
The trailer alone makes it clear that Anderson is an easy fit to play the middle-aged former starlet, while reviews from the film's recent Cannes premiere uniformly singled out her performance for praise, some even considering her worthy of an Oscar. Whether or not that pans out, it seems like Camp Miasma just might see Anderson enter her scream queen era once and for all.
