The Call Me By Your Name gang is getting back together. Well, at least two parts — director Luca Guadagnino and leading man Timothée Chalamet — are for the new movie Bones and All, which is a film about cannibalism. We’ll let you make the Armie Hammer joke here for yourself because we’ve got Suspiria-related things to talk about: it’s cool as hell that both Jessica Harper and David Gordon Green (who was going to remake the original Dario Argento film before Guadagnino came along) are in the cast list here, alongside Waves‘ Taylor Russell and the inimitable Mark Rylance. It’s going to have a world premiere very soon, so it’s fitting that Chalamet himself took to Twitter to blast out a short teaser on Wednesday afternoon.
Here’s the tweet:
If you don’t like going on Twitter for any reason whatsoever (and we don’t blame you), here’s a YouTube embed:
And here’s an official synopsis:
“The film is a story of first love between Maren (Russell), a young woman learning how to survive on the margins of society, and Lee (Chalamet), an intense and disenfranchised drifter, as they meet and join together for a thousand-mile odyssey which takes them through the back roads, hidden passages, and trap doors of Ronald Reagan’s America. But despite their best efforts, all roads lead back to their terrifying pasts and to a final stand which will determine whether their love can survive their otherness.”
Bones and All will have its world premiere at Venice in a few weeks, but you’ll be happy to know that MGM has already acquired the film and has scheduled it for release on November 23. That’s just in time for it to make wonderfully discomfiting post-Thanksgiving viewing, where you and the family might just be hurling into the aisles. We’re sure Luca would be honored.
