Elizabeth Banks applying lip liner in a mirror in Skincare
The Big Picture Elizabeth Banks is about to experience the cutthroat side of the beauty and self-care industry with the new crime thriller Skincare. IFC Films picked up the title for North American distribution earlier this week and has now unveiled the official trailer teasing a mystery surrounding Banks' character Hope Goldman. A much-lauded aesthetician with a beauty empire on the rise, she finds herself the target of sabotage and ruthless competition that spreads into her personal life.
Inspired by true events, Skincare tells the fictional story of the beauty guru Goldman as she tries to launch her career into the stratosphere with her own line of Skincare products. Rather than cruising to the top, however, she faces resistance from facialist Angel Vergara , who opens up a skincare boutique across the street and derails her personal and work lives.
The Emmy-nominated Banks leads the film coming off a wild year in which she directed the bonkers Cocaine Bear, paired up in pink with Zach Galifianakis in The Beanie Bubble, and went on an animated journey with Kumail Nanjiani in Migration. For her latest, she's joined by a wildly talented ensemble alongside Pullman and Méndez, including Michaela Jaé Rodriguez and Nathan Fillion.
'Skincare' Will Release Alongside Some Stiff Competition Skincare will arrive in theaters during what is shaping up to be a very busy day on the silver screen. The Banks and Pullman-led feature will be going head-to-head on August 16 against the Cailee Spaeny-toplined Alien: Romulus in what will be the horror franchise's first installment in seven years.
Despite the tough competition, Banks's beauty-tinged whodunnit received a vote of confidence from AMC Networks head Scott Shooman, who praised the film's direction and star-studded cast. “Austin Peters has cleverly pumped life into the ‘whodunit’ genre by delivering a riveting thriller dripping with noir. Driven by a stellar ensemble cast with a terrific performance by Elizabeth Banks who always commands the screen, we look forward to audiences seeing Skincare in theaters this Summer.
