Maxine (Mia Goth) with smudged makeup pointing a gun in MaXXXine (2024)
Summary Director/Writer Ti West's MaXXXine looks to be a bloody finale to his X trilogy, and it's one of the most exciting horror films of the year. Starring Mia Goth as Maxine "Max" Minx, the film builds off the momentum of 2022's complimentary horror films, X and Pearl. Ti West's horror trilogy work as a modern take on the slasher genre, embracing the brutal elements of the past while exploring surprisingly complex takes on classic horror characters.
What Is A24's MaXXXine About? MaXXXine Is The Final Chapter Of Maxine Minx's Journey MaXXXine is the concluding chapter in Ti West's modern horror trilogy, and promises to be a bloody finale for the trilogy. Mia Goth's Maxine Minx is the central character, an up-and-coming actress taking a stab at fame. When she's cast in a major movie, her big break might just be around the corner. However, Maxine is still haunted by the events of X, which took place six years prior.
Filmed right after the completion of X, Pearl is a prequel that explores the younger days of the titular killer. Set in 1918, Pearl brings back Mia Goth as a younger version of the small-town girl. Convinced she has the talents to be a star, Pearl is held back by her mother's domineering personality and the chores she forces on her. However, her rage steadily grows more brutal, especially after she begins an affair with a newly arrived projection operator at the local movie theater.
MaXXXine seems to find the balance between the two characters, highlighting the inherent duality of Maxine and Pearl as characters. The trailer for MaXXXine reveals that her trauma hasn't dulled Maxine's desire for fame. If anything, she's more commited than ever to seeing her name in lights, telling her friend that she'll become an icon of the horror genre. She's dead-set on becoming famous even if it kills her .
