It’s Emerald Fennell’s hotly anticipated return to the big screen
Since winning the Oscar for best original screenplay in 2021 for her fiery feature directorial debut, Promising Young Woman—not to mention becoming one of only eight women to be nominated for the best director prize in the Academy’s 95-year history—the filmmaker has collaborated with Andrew Lloyd Webber on his reimagined Cinderella and appeared as the pregnant Midge in Barbie, but has so far refrained from returning to the director’s chair. That will change with Saltburn, which she is directing, writing, and producing. We’re crossing our fingers for a surprise cameo too—in her first film, Fennell appeared in a hysterically funny uncredited role as the host of a make-up tutorial video that her vengeful heroine Cassie (Carey Mulligan) takes cues from.
