Mikey Madison Reveals “Weird” and ‘Crazy” ‘The Masque of the Red Death’ Adaptation Releases Next Year

Mikey Madison (pictured above in Scream, 2022) has a new film out this weekend in The Social Reckoning. With the release, the Oscar-winning actor is already discussing her next film, A24’s adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe‘s The Masque of the Red Death. Along with teasing the plot, Madison also revealed that the film will arrive in theaters next year!

Madison sat down with Screen Rant, where she was asked about when we might see the new take on Poe’s classic. The actor replied, “I think next year, definitely. I’m so excited for people to see that. Again, it’s something completely different than I’ve ever done before in terms of this medieval time period, and the tone is beyond anything I have ever read before. I don’t even know if I quite understand it yet, but it’s at times very slapstick and very dramatic and interesting and weird. I play two characters, and it was fun. It was really fun and crazy.“

Weird…fun…crazy…these are all words that describe what I want from my horror movies.
