Charli XCX And Yung Lean Join Chris Evans And Anya Taylor-Joy In New Movie ‘Sacrifice’

The cast list for the new movie Sacrifice just got juicier than a reality show reunion special, and it’s shaping up to be the most star-studded, apocalyptic road trip ever filmed.

Flashback to May, when the internet buzzed like a caffeine-fueled gossip blogger over the news that Captain America himself, Chris Evans, queen of eerie stares Anya Taylor-Joy, eternal goddess Salma Hayek Pinault, and the human embodiment of laughter Sam Richardson had signed on for Sacrifice. The film is directed by Romain Gavras, who clearly woke up one day and thought, Let’s blend Joan of Arc’s drama with a sprinkle of chaos and a dash of fire.

Fast forward to today, and it’s time to upgrade your mental guest list, because a whole parade of eclectic stars has jumped aboard this cinematic wild ride, currently being shot in Greece and Bulgaria (because what screams “apocalypse” like picturesque Mediterranean backdrops?).

According to Deadline (aka the Hollywood crystal ball), the new additions include: pop powerhouse Charli XCX, who will presumably bring some musical drama; Vincent Cassel, who is contractually obligated to add 150% more menace to any role; and John Malkovich, because if there’s a movie about cultish prophecies and hostage situations, he’s your guy. But wait, there’s more! We’ve also got Swedish rapper Yung Lean, who probably had the best reaction when he found out he’d be starring next to Emily in Paris’s Jeremy O. Harris (bonjour, chaos), Ambika Mod of One Day fame, Jade Croot from The Serpent Queen (because nothing says “fire and brimstone” like serpent queens), and Miriam Silverman, who’s bringing Tony-winning chops to the madness.

The plot? Oh, it’s more intense than your aunt’s Facebook rants. Loosely inspired by the Joan of Arc saga, Sacrifice follows Joan (Taylor-Joy), a woman who hears fiery prophecies that make your average weather report sound like a lullaby. She decides it’s her job to save humanity and drags her posse of mystical disciples into action. The plan? Crashing a charity gala with more flair than a reality TV wedding and taking three hostages: Mike Tyler (Evans), who’s your classic exhausted movie star looking for redemption and probably just a quiet nap; Bracken (Cassel), the world’s richest man who’s probably missing a yacht party or two; and Katie (Mod), who’s just unlucky enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong apocalyptic prophecy.

Cue a cinematic journey through fiery forests and existential crises as Mike faces a question so deep you’d think it came from a fortune cookie: What would he sacrifice for humanity? Spoiler alert: It’s probably not his Wi-Fi password.

Oh, and in case you’re wondering, Gavras isn’t just directing this potential masterpiece; he co-wrote it with Succession’s Will Arbery. So expect dialogue sharper than Joan’s sword and plot twists that could knock over your popcorn.
