RLJE Films will be releasing the Eva Green psychological thriller Nocebo in the United States on November 4th, and to help you decide whether or not this is a movie you’d like to watch the weekend after Halloween, we have the trailer for Nocebo embedded above! And VOD release will follow on November 22nd. Variety reports that Vertigo Releasing has acquired the U.K. and Ireland distribution rights and will be releasing the film there on December 9th.
Directed by Lorcan Finnegan (Vivarium) from a screenplay written by Garret Shanley (Without Name), Nocebo finds Green taking on the role of
a fashion designer who is suffering from a mysterious illness that puzzles her doctors and frustrates her husband. Help arrives in the form of Diana, a Filipino carer who uses traditional folk healing to reveal a horrifying truth.
Green is joined in the cast by Mark Strong (Shazam!) as her character’s husband and Chai Fonacier (Maria Clara and Ibarra) as Diana.
A co-production between Ireland and the Philippines, Nocebo was supported by Screen Ireland and the Film Development Council of the Philippines. The film was produced by Lovely Productions’ Brunella Cocchiglia and Wild Swim Films’ Emily Leo, in co-production with Epicmedia’s Bianca Balbuena and Bradley Liew.
Vertigo Releasing’s Ed Caffrey had this to say about the film: “We are thrilled to be bringing Nocebo to U.K. audiences. Lorcan Finnegan has established himself as a truly exciting filmmaker, and we are very pleased to have the opportunity to work together again following Vertigo’s release of Vivarium. The central performances from Eva Green and Mark Strong combine to create a truly memorable cinema experience.“
Eva Green is always awesome, and there’s no way I would pass up the chance to see a psychological thriller with her in the lead role, so I will be watching Nocebo for sure. Will you be watching this one? Let us know by leaving a comment below.
