- Rosamund Pike is set to star in and produce the body horror film Feed, a twisted mother-daughter story about ambition, fame, and transformation in the digital age
- Leslye Headland will direct Feed, marking her collaboration with Pike and screenwriter Daniella Isaacs on a project inspired by the 2022 Finnish film Hatching
- Daniella Isaacs wrote the script for Feed, which explores the dark appetites of social media, parental ambition, and the monetization of youth and beauty
- Primitive Streak, Pike’s production banner, is producing alongside Magnolia Entertainment, Spooky Pictures, ZQ Entertainment, and Agile Films, with ZQ having financed the script’s development
- American Film Market will host the sales launch for Feed next week, positioning the film for international distribution ahead of production
Why it matters: This project brings together high-profile female creatives in a genre space that critiques real cultural obsessions—social media influence, motherhood, and bodily autonomy—amplifying a story that reflects contemporary anxieties with commercial and artistic stakes. The involvement of Pike as both star and producer signals a strategic bet on provocative, female-driven horror with global market appeal.
