Zoë Kravitz to make directorial debut with Blink Twice in UK cinemas this August

An exciting new entry into the psychological thriller genre, Blink Twice, directed by Zoë Kravitz, is slated to land in UK cinemas on 23rd August 2024. The film boasts an impressive ensemble cast including Naomi Ackie, Channing Tatum, Christian Slater and Geena Davis, promising to deliver a gripping cinematic experience. 

Blink Twice spins a tale of intrigue and mystery when tech billionaire Slater King, portrayed by Tatum, crosses paths with cocktail waitress Frida, played by Ackie, at a fundraising gala. This meeting sparks an unexpected journey as Frida finds herself on a dream vacation on King’s private island. What begins as an idyllic getaway quickly descends into a disorienting nightmare, pushing Frida to question the fabric of her reality.

The movie’s narrative promises a blend of sun-soaked days that morph seamlessly into wild nights, with an underlying tension that escalates as the storyline progresses. It’s clear that paradise is not what it seems, and Frida’s realisation that There is something wrong with this place sets the stage for a thrilling quest for the truth.

As the countdown to its release begins, Blink Twice is poised to be a significant milestone in Zoë Kravitz’s directorial career and a captivating addition to the psychological thriller landscape with its star-studded cast and intriguing plot.
