    Poor Things: Release Date, Plot, Cast, Trailer

    From the weird and wonderful mind of Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos comes Poor Things. After the success of past films such as The Lobster and The Killing of a Sacred Deer, Lanthimos has established himself as one of Hollywood’s most original auteurs, and is known for his thought-provoking storylines. Lanthimos’ films have also received critical acclaim, with 2018’s The Favourite winning the Grand Jury Prize at the 75th Venice International Film Festival, and earning ten Academy Award nominations with Olivia Colman winning for Best Actress. 

    Lanthimos is known for his frequent collaborations with actors such as Colin Farrell, Rachel Weisz, Joe Alwyn and Emma Stone. Emma Stone takes the lead role in Poor Things as Bella Baxter, a young woman brought back by the scientist Dr. Godwin Baxter.
