Focus Features just dropped a new clip and poster for their upcoming release Thoroughbreds. The film opens on March 9th Stateside, and on April 6th across the UK. Olivia Cooke (Bates Motel, Me and Earl and the Dying Girl) and Anya Taylor-Joy (The Witch, Split) lead the cast and appear in the said clip. First, here’s the new poster.
Childhood friends Lily and Amanda reconnect in suburban Connecticut after years of growing apart. Lily has turned into a polished, upper-class teenager, with a fancy boarding school on her transcript and a coveted internship on her resume; Amanda has developed a sharp wit and her own particular attitude, but all in the process of becoming a social outcast. Though they initially seem completely at odds, the pair bond over Lily’s contempt for her oppressive stepfather, Mark, and as their friendship grows, they begin to bring out one another’s most destructive tendencies. Their ambitions lead them to hire a local hustler, Tim, and take matters into their own hands to set their lives straight.
Watch the new clip, titled ‘The Technique’, below.
