Maxine “F***ing” Minx is back for her third and final film. Only this time writer-director Ti West is bringing her out West. He’s wrapping up his X horror trilogy under the bright lights of Hollywood. But the newest trailer for MaXXXine shows that its young star so desperate for fame and glory won’t get the chance to build a new life for herself in Tinsletown. The Devil and her past will find her wherever she goes. And when they do it will mean even more blood and death.
The third and final X film is a star-studded affair. In addition to Mia Goth, MaXXXine also features Elizabeth Debicki, Moses Sumney, Michelle Monaghan, Bobby Cannavale, Halsey, Lily Collins, Giancarlo Esposito, and Kevin Bacon. …Damn. Now that’s a cast.
But, just as with the first two entries in the series, we’re most excited to see Goth play Maxine Minx once again. In just a couple of years she’s established her place in the annals of horror. Maxine is not the only one who will be in danger walking the streets of Hollywood Boulevard, though. Once again those closest to the wannabe actress will find themselves in mortal danger. Here’s the official synopsis for MaXXXine from A24 to accompany the trailer:
In 1980s Hollywood, adult film star and aspiring actress Maxine Minx finally gets her big break. But as a mysterious killer stalks the starlets of Hollywood, a trail of blood threatens to reveal her sinister past.
MaXXXine will turn up the heat and the bloodshed when it comes to theaters this summer on July 5, 2024. But fans hoping to get an early sneak preview won’t have to wait that long. A24 announced it’s bringing back 2022’s X, the first film in the franchise, to theaters for one night only on June 18. Those screenings will feature a special early look of MaXXXine during the movie’s post-credits.
That’s only fitting since the past isn’t done with Maxine just yet.
