Rising starlet Olivia Cookie (“Me and the Dying Girl”) will join Anya Taylor-Joy (“The Witch”) and Anton Yelchin (“Star Trek”) in the psychological thriller “Thoroughbred”.
The film, says Deadline, marks the directorial debut of playwright-screenwriter Cory Finley.
The movie fixes on “a volatile friendship between two suburban teenage girls who discover that a murder might solve both of their problems.”
To shoot on the East Coast, the film was financed by June Pictures.
