Emma Stone stars in Poor Thingsthe trailer of which was unveiled on Thursday, a woman who finds herself with an infant’s brain after having tried in vain to take her own life.
This is the next film by the director with such twisted universes Yorgos Lanthimos, to whom we owe The Lobster and The Favourite, which featured Emma Stone.
Set in a surreal Victorian era, the Oscar winner plays the patient of an eccentric scientist played by Willem Dafoe. A woman who will leave in search of discoveries and freedom.
This is a return to the cinema for Emma Stone since her last role was that of Cruella.
Poor Things is an adaptation of the 1992 novel of the same name by Alasdair Grey. The film also stars Mark Ruffalo, Ramy Youssef, Jerrod Carmichael and Christopher Abbott.
