‘Good One’ Rising Star Lily Collias Is Ready To Take On The World
Deadline takes a trip down the Croisette with up-and-comer Lily Collias, whose role in India Donaldson's Sundance and Cannes hit 'Good One' has attracted praise.
As the positive buzz has built around the movie, the attention has focused on the startlingly subtle and emotional performance given by Collias, who plays Sam, a 17-year-old who accompanies her father Chris (James Le Gros) and his best friend Matt (Danny McCarthy) on a camping trip. Donaldson’s film offers an accessible entry on a fun weekend in the woods, as the men squabble and Sam, who seems to outwit the pair of them without even trying, attempts to mediate. Collias made her feature debut in 2022’s Palm Trees and Power Lines alongside Gretchen Mol, and Good One feels like a performance that will attract ever greater opportunities for the future star.
