Mia Goth is back as the villain from slasher movie X in A24 and director Ti West‘s Pearl, available tomorrow, Tuesday, November 15th, on Blu-ray (+ DVD + Digital) and DVD from A24 and Lionsgate. Pre-order today!
Pearl was co-written by Ti West (X, The Innkeepers, The Sacrament, The House of the Devil) and Mia Goth, and the two talk about the movie’s origins in a clip from the bonus features package that Bloody Disgusting is exclusively debuting today. You can check it out below.
“Pearl came about at the very beginning; it was somewhat of a joke… when I first signed on to X, Ti and I were talking a lot about Maxine and Pearl and the connection between those two women. Within those conversations, this idea just started to form – somewhat as a joke at first, I guess because we never really believed that this could happen,” Mia Goth explains.
Ti West adds, “It just sort of bloomed into something far more three-dimensional.”

“Filmmaker Ti West returns with another chapter from the twisted world of X in this astonishing follow-up to the year’s most acclaimed horror film. Trapped on her family’s isolated farm, Pearl must tend to her ailing father under the bitter and overbearing watch of her devout mother.
“Lusting for a glamorous life like she’s seen in the movies, Pearl’s ambitions, temptations, and repressions all collide in the stunning, Technicolor-inspired origin story of X’s iconic villain.”
