Showcasing Uma Thurman, Iris Apatow, Lana Condor, Millicent Simmonds, Avantika, Maddie Ziegler, Michael Culkin, and Lydia Leonard. The film is directed by Vicky Jewson, who adapted the screenplay from Kate Freund.
Apatow, Candor, Simmonds, Avantika and Ziegler appear as the frosty team of ballerinas and Thurman as Devora Kasimer. Meanwhile, Culkin appears as Lothar Marcovic.
Originally titled Ballerina Overdrive and first announced in February 2023, the film will be Jewson’s fourth directed feature following 2019’s Close, starring Noomi Rapace. The filmmaker also has directing credits on the Netflix prequel series The Witcher: Blood Origin, based on Andrzej Sapkowski’s Witcher book series.
Synopsis:
An action-packed thriller where five ballerinas, on their way to a prestigious dance competition, are barely on speaking terms when their bus breaks down in a remote forest. With no other options, they reluctantly seek shelter at an unsettling roadside inn run by Devora Kasimer (Uma Thurman), a reclusive former ballet prodigy. From the moment they arrive, something feels wrong—and their worst instincts prove right. As the situation turns deadly, the fractured team must set aside rivalries and weaponise years of brutal training, turning grace, discipline, and even pointe shoes into tools for survival.
Pretty Lethal will oversee a 13th March release at SXSW, followed by a Prime Video debut on March 25th.
