When Raoul and Alex encounter the mysterious and intriguing Nameless (Olsen) and her hard-partying cabal, they are drawn into a beautiful, surrealistic world of hedonism, thrills, and violence, reported Deadline.

She made her debut in the critically acclaimed independent movie Martha Marcy May Marlene and has since starred in Wind River, Ingrid Goes West, and Godzilla, among other films.

Upcoming titles from XYZ Films include Banquet, starring Meghann Fahy and directed by Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia; the SXSW thriller Hallow Road, directed by Babak Anvari and starring Rosamund Pike and Matthew Rhys; and The Trip starring Jason Segel, Samara Weaving, Juliette Lewis and Timothy Olyphant, which is currently in post-production, reported Deadline.

Wow, what an exciting cast! Elizabeth Olsen was brilliant in WandaVision. Indian Marvel fans will definitely be watching this one. Hope it releases here soon 🤞 The 80s LA vampire concept sounds fresh!

Interesting to see Hollywood still making vampire films when we have such rich mythology in India. Would love to see an Indian filmmaker tackle similar themes with our own creatures like vetala or chudail. The West always gets the spotlight.

The director Panos Cosmatos made Mandy which was visually stunning but too violent for my taste. Hope this one balances style with substance. Kristen Stewart and Oscar Isaac are great actors though - worth watching for their performances alone.

As a film student in Mumbai, I'm excited to see how they create this "electric twilight universe". The production design could be amazing! Though I wish Indian theaters would show more of these niche films instead of just big superhero movies.

Another Hollywood vampire movie? 🥱 They keep making the same thing with different stars. At least the Indian horror scene is trying new things like Tumbbad. But I'll probably watch this for Elizabeth Olsen - she's a fantastic actress.
