Jenna Ortega and Taylor Russell Star in White Female Single Remake

Info in Movie News | Jenna Ortega continues to strengthen her position in Hollywood. After achieving huge success with Wednesday, the talented young actress is reportedly in negotiations to star in a remake of the psychological thriller, Single White Female. Not alone, Ortega will be acting alongside Taylor Russell, an actress whose star is also on the rise thanks to her roles in Bones and All and Escape Room.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, the original film, released in 1992, told a suspenseful story about a woman who starts to have a nightmare after bringing a new roommate home. The city of New York is a prime location for the movie, where the main theme is the dark side of addiction and the exploration of self. The upcoming re-make, now scheduled to be Sony Pictures's production, seeks to re-write the unknown story by taking a brand new outlook that is about the new days.


The Right Remake for the Age of Social Media

The world has significantly been altered since the first release of Single White Female. If previously, the threat could come from a stranger living under the same roof, now obsession and manipulation are more prevalent via social media. With Ortega and Russell in leading roles, this remake has the potential to tackle issues such as toxic relationships, digital stalking and the double identities that are more common in the internet age. 

Apart from this project, Ortega is still busy with the second season of Wednesday and the A24 movie Death of a Unicorn, while Russell continues to make a name for herself in the industry with ambitious projects such as Hope.  Despite their successful track records in the horror and thriller genres, their union in the picture will certainly lead to a harrowing and deep psychological experience.

The project has not been officially scheduled and there is no information yet about the release date, but it has already drawn attention from numerous fans of classic thrillers. Will the new version of Single White Female be able to replicate or even outdo its forerunner? We have to see what the future holds first.

  Info in Movie News | Tom Holland is back as Peter Parker in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the fourth installment in his Marvel Cinematic Universe saga, and this time, the tone is darker, the stakes are higher, and Peter is more alone than ever before. To celebrate Spider-Man Day, Sony surprised fans with a teaser that shows Holland’s new suit in action. It’s sleeker, more tactical, and noticeably darker, a reflection of Peter’s new reality as a street-level hero operating without Avengers support. According to Collider,  production is ongoing in Glasgow, a city that is being used as the location for the shooting of a movie set in New York City. The fans were very smart, and they found an Easter egg in the set photos that were leaked: an armored truck with a red demon symbol. Gamers hardly had to be told, the logo of the Inner Demons was there, the gang of Mister Negative who is the leader in the Spider-Man PlayStation games. This nod strongly suggests that Mister Negative (a.k...
