Renate Reinsve Joins Chiwetel Ejiofor In A24 Sci-Fi Horror Pic ‘The Backrooms’


'The Backrooms' movie has set Renate Reinsve to star opposite Chiwetel Ejiofor, with 19-year-old Kane Parsons to direct.

At the time, word was that he’d be share the screen with The Penguin ‘s Cristin Milioti, though we’re told her deal didn’t end up making. The film’s title and setting draw inspiration from the imagery of a creepypasta (or internet urban legend) published to the website 4chan in 2019. Recently reteaming with Trier on the dramedy Sentimental Value, which garnered rave reviews in its Cannes premiere and won the festival’s Grand Prix, Reinsve’s upcoming slate also includes the Cristian Mungiu drama Fjord and Joe Talbot’s A24 pic The Governesses.
