A24 Reveals ‘X’ Prequel Movie ‘Pearl’ With Official Poster And Trailer!

Mia Goth will reprise the role of X‘s villain Pearl in an upcoming prequel movie titled Pearl.

Check out Mia Goth on the official Pearl poster art below, which is being advertised by A24 as “the X-traordinary origin story” of the character first seen in X.

The brand new prequel movie is set in 1918, decades prior to the 1970s-set X, which was released in theaters back in March of this year. Goth played the dual role of Pearl, a senior citizen, and Maxine, the film’s final girl.

Ti West had indicated earlier this year that the world of X may eventually even expand to include a third movie, but at this time we’ve heard no official confirmation of that.

Ti West was quoted as saying “Part of the idea of this movie that’s cool to me is that there is a bigger thing to it all. What I can tell you about Pearl, because we’ve already made it and it’s done, is it is very much a story about Pearl. So you will learn more about her. It is stylistically very different from X. You do not need one without the other, but they enrich each other in a specific way. In the way that X is affected, let’s say by 1970s horror independent filmmaking and Americana cinema, Pearl is influenced by a very different era of filmmaking. If we do the third one, it will be affected by a different type of cinema.”

In addition to Mia Goth, the second movie’s cast includes David Corenswet, Tandi Wright, Matthew Sunderland, and Emma Jenkins-Purro, and the film was written by West and Goth.
