The creative partnership between Emma Stone and Yorgos Lanthimos is a gift that keeps on giving, and they’re gearing up to release another film together. Searchlight Pictures dropped the first trailer for Lanthimos’ anthology film Kinds of Kindness, and Stone leads its A-list cast.
Kinds of Kindness is a triptych fable that chronicles the journey of three different characters. We’ll follow a story of a man trying to take control of his own life, a policeman whose wife seems to be a different person after being lost at sea and coming back home, and a woman who’s trying to find a special individual who’s destined to become a prodigious spiritual leader.
Kinds of Kindness will reunite Stone with her frequent collaborator Yorgos Lanthimos, following the success of their most recent collaboration Poor Things, which won Stone her second Oscar. This film also marks the reunion between Lanthimos and screenwriter Efthimis Filippou, who also co-wrote his films The Lobster and Killing of a Sacred Deer
This film will also star several of Lanthimos’ past collaborators, including Poor Things’ Willem Dafoe and Margaret Qualley and The Favourite’s Joe Alwyn. Hong Chau (The Whale), Mamoudou Athie (Archive 81), and Hunter Schafer (Euphoria) also star.
Kinds of Kindness will hit the theatres on June 21 via Searchlight Pictures.
