Sophie Thatcher Embraces Offbeat Roles After Yellowjackets

In a Hollywood Reporter profile, Sophie Thatcher explains why she’s moving from predictable franchise work to offbeat, artistically ambitious projects—Heretic, Companion, and Nicolas Winding Refn’s Her Private Hell—while continuing to shoot Yellowjackets’ final season. She describes thriving on avant-garde, visually immersive cinema, living off the grid in upstate New York, pursuing music, and hoping to direct one day, all as she leans into playing outsiders rather than fitting a traditional box.

Refn’s Opulent Return Divides Cannes Critics

Refn’s Opulent Return Divides Cannes Critics

Nicolas Winding Refn returns to feature filmmaking with Her Private Hell, a visually lavish Cannes premiere presented out of competition. The film blends a neon-lit hotel setting, a demonic Leather Man, and a Tokyo sequence to homage giallo and Brian De Palma, all wrapped in Refn’s signature elevated-genre sensibility. While the production design and cinematography are arresting, the narrative often feels overindulgent and contrived, making the experience punishingly slow for non–diehard fans. The 1 hour 49 minute film marks a ten-year gap since his last feature and reinforces Refn’s status as a polarizing auteur whose obsession with style can outpace storytelling.

Refn Recounts 25-Minute Death and a Second Chance at Cannes

Danish filmmaker Nicolas Winding Refn broke down at Cannes while discussing his near-death experience: he was told he had died for about 25 minutes due to a leaking heart, underwent emergency surgery two weeks later, and joked that a surgeon like Tom Cruise could “fix me with his hands” and revive me with electricity. He said the life-altering event gave him a renewed purpose and a chance to start over as his new film Her Private Hell premiered at Cannes to a seven-minute ovation, marking his return to feature directing after a decade.

Refn's Surreal Comeback: Her Private Hell Unfolds at Cannes

Nicolas Winding Refn returns to cinema with Her Private Hell at Cannes (out of competition), a surreal, visually lush experience that emphasizes mood and Pino Donaggio’s emotive score over traditional storytelling. Set in a dreamlike, neon-lit megacity, the film follows Elle (Sophie Thatcher) as a high-stakes film shoot spirals into mysticism, murder, and the Leather Man, with Private K (Charles Melton) appearing like a spectral avenger. Echoing Bergman’s Persona and 2001-era imagery, the movie is a bold, polarizing blend of style and ambiguity that marks Refn’s first feature since Neon Demon and his near-fatal heart condition, signaling a daring, if divisive, new direction for his work.
