All-female horror anthology XX gets picked up by Magnet

Last Updated on July 22, 2021

The new horror anthology with a gender twist, XX, has just been picked up by Magnet Releasing, reports Deadline. As part of the deal, Magnet is taking worldwide distribution rights who hope to dish the film out in 2015. It’s been a while since we last reported on XX, so let me give you a refresher.

The directors onboard the momentous indie movie include Jennifer Lynch (BOXING HELENA), Mary Harron (AMERICAN PSYCHO), Karyn Kusama (JENNIFER'S BODY; pictured) and Jovanka Vuckovic (THE CAPTURED BIRD). The filmmakers will develop their own stories, and each will have a female lead character. The various segments will be linked by work by Guadalajara-based stop-motion animator Sofia Carrillo, who will also create the film’s title sequence.

Todd Brown will produce for XYZ, whose Nate Bolotin, Nick Spicer and Aram Tertzakia will executive produce for the company.
