The Beast

£14.99

Released: 21st October 2024. In a near-future world dominated by artificial intelligence, where human emotions are perceived as a threat, Gabrielle (Lea Seydoux) embarks on a journey to purify her DNA by revisiting her past lives. During this process, she reconnects with Louis (George MacKay), her great love. However, a sense of foreboding and fear grips her as she anticipates an impending catastrophe. A spellbinding and head-spinning adaptation of the Henry James novel 'The Beast in the Jungle' from acclaimed writer-director Bertrand Bonello (Nocturama, Saint Laurent), this genre-defying love story masterfully blends past, present and future, with unmissable performances from BAFTA nominee Lea Seydoux (Spectre, Dune: Part Two) and fellow BAFTA nominee George MacKay (1917, Captain Fantastic).
