FKA twigs, Sturgill Simpson, Will Oldham (aka Bonnie “Prince” Billy), Jake Weary, and Chloë Sevigny are set to star in a new movie written and directed by Boy Harsher. The electronic duo will also score the film, which is called The Lonely Woman and described as “a bleak, sensual, and atmospheric horror-thriller.”
In a press release, the film’s synopsis reads, “An unnerving, sensual and atmospheric horror-thriller set in the forgotten corners of rural New England, THE LONELY WOMAN follows a woman marked by her first love’s death in a mountain tunnel. Drawn into the mystery of a new disappearance, she finds herself confronting a seductive and terrifying presence buried beneath the town.”
This is Boy Harsher’s first time directing a feature film, though in 2022 they wrote, directed, edited, and composed the short film The Runner. Their most recent LP was 2019’s Careful.
