Nicolas Winding Refn has taken viewers into the world of dealers and prisoners, brought them to the horrific depths of Valhalla, the slick streets of Los Angeles, and the strange underworld of Thailand. And now, the filmmaker is back in California, but for a different story than “Drive.” Filming on “The Neon Demon” is about to wrap, and the first official images are here.
Elle Fanning, Jena Malone, Karl Glusman, Bella Heathcote, Abbey Lee, Desmond Harrington, Christina Hendricks, and Keanu Reeves star in the Countess Bathory-inspired movie about an aspiring model who becomes prey to other women who want what she has. We can’t wait to see what Refn does with that premise.
The movie is expected to be completed by early 2016, so let’s just go ahead and presume by this time next year, Refn will be on the red carpet in Cannes with his latest movie to show off. [Screen Daily]
