Emell Adolphus READ TIME: 1 MIN.
Julia Fox is finally making her gay debut, after seemingly coming out as a lesbian on TikTok, in the LGBTQ romantic drama "Perfect."
The "Uncut Gems" actor will star alongside Ashley Moore ("I Know What You Did Last Summer") and newcomer Micaela Wittman, with Millicent Hailes steering the ship as director, reported Variety.
"'Perfect' is set at a scenic-but-rundown lakeside resort in the California mountains in a time where climate change has contaminated the water supply," Variety detailed. "Fox will play a wealthy pregnant woman who is living out an escapist fantasy as she falls in love with a younger woman (Moore). Their sudden relationship is complicated by an upcoming birth, turbulent social events and clashing values about the world's uncertain future."
The film will mark Hailes' feature directorial debut, while Wittman – who has directed music videos Pussy Riot, Billie Eilish, Tinashe and more – will play a town local who guides Moore's character through the drama.
Lio Mehiel ("Mutt") and Debi Mazar ("Younger," "Goodfellas") are also in talks to join the cast. Production is set to begin next week.
Fox also has a role in Steven Soderbergh's ghost drama "Presence," co-starring Lucy Liu, and in the sports horror thriller "Him," produced by Jordan Peele.
