AceShowbiz - Director Aoife McArdle, known for her work on Severance, is preparing to helm a new psychological thriller titled Foxfinder. The film will feature an impressive cast including BAFTA and Emmy nominee Tessa Thompson (Creed), Golden Globe and Emmy winner Owen Cooper (Adolescence), and two-time Emmy winner Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Bear).
International sales and distribution for Foxfinder will be handled collaboratively by Cornerstone and Logical Pictures Group, with plans to initiate sales at the Cannes market. In the United States, WME Independent, Cornerstone, and Logical Pictures Group are jointly managing the rights representation.
The film’s synopsis describes a tense narrative centered on Jude and Sam, a grieving couple struggling to maintain routine and survival on their farm. Their lives are dramatically disrupted when William, a government agent known as a "foxfinder," arrives with the mission to eliminate the fox, deemed an enemy. As paranoia grows and strict, irrational regulations intensify, suspicion overtakes love, and reality itself begins to distort.
Foxfinder promises to explore themes of trust, fear, and the unraveling of truth against a backdrop of mounting tension. With its accomplished cast and visionary director, the project is poised to capture attention in the psychological thriller genre upon its forthcoming release.
