Joining Goth in this star-studded cast are Elizabeth Debicki (“Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3”), Michelle Monaghan (“Mission: Impossible – Fallout”), Bobby Cannavale (“Ant-Man”), Lily Collins (“Emily in Paris”), Giancarlo Esposito (“Better Call Saul”), and Kevin Bacon (“Friday the 13th”). Adding to the intrigue are musicians turned actors Moses Sumney and Halsey.

Will MaXXXine Conclude the Story?

As the release of “MaXXXine” draws near, the film is already generating buzz as a “good old whodunit slasher.” However, the question remains: will this instalment wrap up the story as a trilogy, or could Mia Goth find herself returning for a fourth film?

Director Ti West has hinted at the possibility of extending the saga, revealing that he has an idea for a fourth film but is waiting to gauge the reception of “MaXXXine” before making any firm decisions. In an interview with What’s Under the Bed? West stated, “Maybe, I don’t know if there will be a fourth film. There is this one weird asterisk idea that, if I explained it, it would make sense, but let’s see what happens. Let’s get this movie done first, see if people like it, and we’ll go from there.”

The journey began with the release of “X” in 2022, which garnered acclaim from both critics and horror enthusiasts alike. This was followed by the surprise prequel, “Pearl,” filmed in secret and released shortly after the original.

With “MaXXXine” poised for its theatrical debut on September 16, 2024, fans eagerly anticipate whether this instalment will serve as a satisfying conclusion to the trilogy or open the door to further chapters in the gripping tale. Stay tuned for more updates as the story unfolds.
