July 27, 2022 by Amie Cranswick

A24 has debuted the first trailer for the upcoming horror Pearl. A prequel to writer-director Ti West’s hit horror X [read our review here], which follows a young Pearl (Mia Goth) as she dreams of leaving her repressed life and overbearing parents behind, lusting after the glamourous life she sees in the movies; watch the trailer below…

Trapped on her family’s isolated farm, Pearl must tend to her ailing father under the bitter and overbearing watch of her devout mother. Lusting for a glamorous life like she’s seen in the movies, Pearl’s ambitions, temptations, and repressions all collide, in the stunning, technicolor-inspired origin story of X’s iconic villain.
