Neon and Topic Studios finally announced some movement for a science fiction and thriller movie. Infinity Pool is now underway. Principal photography begins on September 6th, 2021. The film, starring Alexander Skarsgård is also set to executive produce. This is the latest collaboration between Neon and Brandon Cronenberg after the renowned Possessor movie in 2020.
So far information on the plot for Infinity Pool is scant but Mother of Movies can confirm the following:
“James and Em are young, rich, in love, and on vacation. Their all-inclusive resort boasts island tours and gleaming beaches. But outside of the hotel gates waits for something much more dangerous and seductive, beyond the edge of paradise.”
Infinity Pool storyline
Infinity Pool Storyline
The island, La Tolqa, is a made-up location said to be wrought with a hedonistic tourism subculture full of violence and horror. Infinity Pool is written and directed by Brandon Cronenberg. If we can gauge its success by any of his previous films like Possessor or Anti Viral this too will be a cracker of a film.
NEON will co-finance and executive produce the sci-fi thriller alongside Topic Studios.
NEON will release Infinity Pool in the U.S. and Elevation Pictures will release the film in Canada.
“Infinity Pool is NEON’s latest foray into production. The upcoming slate includes:
- David Cronenberg’s Crimes of the Future starring Viggo Mortensen,
- Lea Seydoux, and Kristen Stewart.
- Duke Johnson’s The Actor starring Ryan Gosling.
- Pablo Larrain’s Spencer starring Kristen Stewart.
Plus three titles that world premiered in Cannes (July 2021:)
- Julia Ducaurnau’s Titane,
- Apichatpong Weerasethakul’s Memoria starring Tilda Swinton, and
- The Year of the Everlasting Storm.“
Mother of Movies will update release details and information as soon as we hear anything. While we wait, did you see Villains starring Bill Skarsgård and Maika Monroe? or
