Timothée Chalamet is returning to the big screen, this time alongside “Waves” actor Taylor Russell, as the two find themselves at the centre of an unusual romance. “Bones and All,” based on Camille DeAngelis’s 2015 novel of the same name, is an indie coming-of-age tale about first loves Maren (Russell) and Lee (Chalamet), who embark on a thousand-mile-long journey as they’re haunted by their terrifying pasts. Oh, and Maren’s cannibalistic tendencies.
According to Deadline, the movie’s producers describe the film as “a liberating road odyssey of two young people coming into their own, searching for identity and chasing beauty in a perilous world that cannot abide who they are.” Director Luca Guadagnino adds that the “heart of the movie is tender and affectionate towards them.”
On July 26, new stills from “Bones and All” were unveiled with intense images of Russell and Chalamet transformed as their characters. The highly anticipated film – which reunites Chalamet and Guadagnino after their 2017 Oscar-winning feature, “Call Me by Your Name” – is set to make its world premiere at the 2022 Venice Film Festival competition, which begins on Aug. 31.
