Is Emma Stone an Alien in Yorgos Lanthimos' ‘Bugonia' Trailer?
Yorgos Lanthimos and Emma Stone are collaborating again, this time on Bugonia, an eerie, dark-comedy remake of the 2003 South Korean sci-fi film Save the Green Planet!, written and directed by Jang Joon-Hwan. The film's synopsis from Will Tracy's screenplay is as follows: 'Two conspiracy obsessed young men (Jesse Plemons and Aidan Delbis) kidnap the high-powered CEO of a major company (Emma Stone), convinced that she is an alien intent on destroying planet Earth.' More from The Hollywood Reporter Daisy Edgar-Jones to Star in New 'Sense and Sensibility' Film Adaptation Maya da Costa, Myra Molloy to Star in Hayley Kiyoko's 'Girls Like Girls' Movie Steven Flynn, Former Gramercy Pictures and Focus Features Marketing Executive, Dies at 70 In addition to Stone, Plemons and Delbis, Stavros Halkias and Alicia Silverstone round out the cast. The trailer is equal parts unsettling, outlandish and zany. Although its veneer is sheer absurdity, the film's essence seems to be a dark commentary on economic disparity. While it's unclear is Stone's character is actually an alien, she appears like an unbothered Queen Bee, unfazed by the struggling working class. The English-language version of the Korean film was developed by Miky Lee's CJ ENM with Eddington writer-director Ari Aster and Lars Knudsen at Square Peg. Ed Guiney and Andrew Lowe are producing for Element Pictures along with Lanthimos, Aster, Knudsen, Stone and Lee and Jerry Kyoungboum Ko for CJ ENM. Stone has worked with Lanthimos on The Favourite, Poor Things and Kinds of Kindness, which also starred Plemons. Universal Pictures will release Bugonia internationally, excluding Korea, where CJ ENM will handle the local release. Focus Features will release Bugonia in select theaters in the U.S. on Oct. 24, followed by a wide expansion on Oct. 31.

Hayley Kiyoko Just Casted the Lead Roles for Her 'Girls Like Girls' Movie
It's been a decade (!!!) since Hayley Kiyoko's iconic 'Girls Like Girls' music video made waves and took over our social feeds in the form of Tumblr-era fan edits. Since then, the sapphic anthem has become a classic in the queer community and taken on a new life as the singer-songwriter developed the treatment into her debut novel of the same name. Now, the story is set to hit the big screen in her directorial debut with Focus Features. On June 24 (aka the 10th anniversary of the music video), Hayley dropped major news about the upcoming flick and revealed which young actors would take on the lead roles of Coley and Sonya with a sweet social media post. 'Today is the 10 year anniversary of the release of 'girls like girls' - the music video. What a journey it's been, and continues to be. I am beyond grateful to all of you who have been on this wild ride with me since the very beginning,' the 'Curious' singer wrote, in part. She continued, 'So here we are, a decade later, meeting the lead actors of our film for the first time. A film that up until now was just a crazy dream that has now come to life. 😭 Here are the moments when I finally got to share the exciting news with each of them. These girls' performances are going to blow you away. This is only the beginning…' Per Deadline, the upcoming movie 'tells the universal story of falling in love for the first time and learning to accept yourself along the way.' Girls Like Girls will star Maya da Costa (Under The Bridge) as Coley and Myra Molloy (He's All That) as Sonya. The original music video showcases a blossoming romance between two female best friends as one of them navigates a toxic relationship with a guy. It starred Stefanie Scott as Coley, Kelsey Chow as Sonya, and Hayden Thompson as Trenton. Hayley and Stefanie co-wrote the screenplay of the upcoming film, while Marc Platt Productions, Michael Philip, Jason Moring, and Richard Alan Reid are set to produce. Details on a release date are currently slim, but till then, we'll be reliving Hayley's classic video:
