Olivia Cooke Replaces Maika Monroe in Movie "Brides"
Yara Sameh
Olivia Cooke is set to star in the Neon thriller "Brides" from Watcher director Chloe Okuno, who will direct from a script she wrote.
It will be produced by Anthony Bregman and Stefanie Azpiazu through Likely Story. Neon will release "Brides" theatrically.
The pic follows Sally Bishop (Cooke) and her husband, who travel to a remote Italian villa whose owner, a mysterious count, takes a peculiar interest in Sally.
Cooke steps in for Maika Monroe, who had scheduling issues with her Universal film "Reminders of Him".
As a filmmaker, Okuno's feature debut was the psychological thriller "Watcher", starring Monroe and Burn Gorman, which premiered in the U.S. Dramatic Competition at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival and went on to play several other festivals.
Drawn to genre-based material that aims to excite and unsettle, her other works include writing and directing the 'Storm Drain' segment of the anthology series "V/H/S/94", as well as directing episodes from Showtime's "Let the Right One In" and the James Wan-produced series "Teacup".
Best known for her roles in "Ready Player One", "Me, Earl", and "The Dying Girl," Cooke is coming off the second season of HBO's "Game of Thrones" prequel series "House of the Dragon".
She recently wrapped production on the Amazon series "The Girlfriend" opposite Robin Wright.
