Zoë Kravitz on 'Blink Twice'

Zoë Kravitz's directorial debut, 'Blink Twice', is set to release on August 21 and explores the disturbing power dynamics between men and women through the story of Frida, a waitress played by Naomi Ackie. Initially a dream vacation on a tech billionaire's island, the film takes a dark turn as Frida uncovers unsettling truths about her surroundings. To address sensitive content, Amazon MGM Studios has issued a trigger warning for the film, acknowledging its themes of abuse of power and violence. Kravitz noted that her upbringing among Hollywood elites influenced her perspective on power abuse, aiming to create a narrative that resonates particularly with women. The film features a notable cast including Channing Tatum, Adria Arjona, and Geena Davis, and aims to highlight the absurdities of women's everyday experiences. Kravitz's intent is to make a psychological thriller that challenges the male-centric narratives often seen in cinema.
