British actress Rosamund Pike will be a protagonist and producer of the young horror film Fed ‘%s’, which deals with the dark side of social networks, obsession with fame and parental ambitions, has reported American medium Deadline.
The date of the film’s publication has not yet been disclosed.
The star of film, the Care a Loté, will perform the character of Erin, a desperate mother who discovers an unusual beauty supplement that promises to transform her daughter, a young gymnast, into a social networking star. As the girl’s fame and success increase, however, she begins to undergo a frightening transformation.
The film’s work will be made by Lessie Headland, known for the series Russian Doll, and the script is written by Daniella Isaacs. The story was inspired by the Finnish film ‘%Hatching’, published in 2022.
Feed was described as an unusual and disturbing story between a mother and her daughter, which centers parental ambitions, illusions of protection, and a thin line between victim and predator.
Pike has shown that she long wanted to make a film that is provocatively treating dependence on social networks and modern obsession with fame and perfection.
I’ve long wanted to make a movie that plays with our obsession with social networks, self-improvement and the desire for fame without necessarily any particular talent. But even with the frightening side of modern learning, the actress said.
She explained that her character, Erin, is a mother who wants to see her daughter dominate the digital world, believing that success and fame will protect her from life’s difficulties.
Film addresses the dark desire of online communities, a world of social networks that earn money from youth and beauty, a mother’s ambition for her daughter’s success and the thirst of a teenager for fame, independence and control in her relationship with her mother, Piquet stated.
Meanwhile, director Leslye Headland has named the scenario a disturbing but deeply human story, also praising Rosamund Pike’s artistic courage.
It’s a bold, disturbing and deeply human story. Rosamund is one of the bravest actresses working today and could not ask for better associates to explore the darkest parts of this story, she said.
