We just got the new trailer for the upcoming film LITTLE JOE from director Jessica Hausner and we are intrigued. This unnerving feature stars Emily Beecham, who received the Best Actress Award for the film at Cannes Film Festival this year, and also features superb performances from Ben Whishaw, Kerry Fox and Kit Connor who all encounter the crimson beauty of a special plant in LITTLE JOE.
LITTLE JOE follows Alice (Emily Beecham), a single mother and dedicated senior plant breeder at a corporation engaged in developing new species. She has engineered a special crimson flower, remarkable not only for its beauty but also for its therapeutic value: if kept at the ideal temperature, fed properly and spoken to regularly, this plant makes its owner happy. Against company policy, Alice takes one home as a gift for her teenage son, Joe. They christen it ‘Little Joe.’ But as their plant grows, so too does Alice’s suspicion that her new creation may not be as harmless as its nickname suggests.
Directed by Jessica Hausner (“Amour Fou,” “Lourdes”), LITTLE JOE stars Emily Beecham (“Daphne,” upcoming “Cruella”), Ben Whishaw (“The Danish Girl,” upcoming “The Personal History of David Copperfield”), Kerry Fox (“The Dressmaker, “An Angel At My Table”) and Kit Connor (“Rocketman”).
