Beauty has never been represented in such an exciting manner as in the beauty industry of today. ‘Skincare,' a new crime thriller film directed by Austin Peters who has previously directed the film ‘Wrong Turn,' is due to be released on August 16, 2024, in selected theaters. As the host who shot to fame with his docu-drama show, Peters will be a valuable addition when it comes to capturing the beauty rivalry from a new angle. This film, with an excellent cast, including Elizabeth Banks, will be a great spectacle, and fans of the series should look forward to it.
Elizabeth Banks stars as Hope Goldman, who is an up and coming aesthetician, poised on the precipice of founding her own chain of successful spas and skincare products company. However, the dreams of Ana finishes when Angel Vergara portrayed by Luis Gerardo Méndez open a similar boutique across the shop. The tension between the two characters is that they become bitter professional rivals, and the story becomes one of professional rivalry and revenge. Jordan, played by Lewis Pullman, Hope sets out to investigate the sabotage incidents, thereby compounding the plot's dramatic and full-throttle action.
It is also important to mention that the cast includes Michaela Jaé (MJ) Rodriguez and Nathan Fillion, which makes the fans more curious as to see those two actors in this film. The original screenplay by Sam Freilich, Austin Peters and Deering Regan is a dark but fabulous tale of aspiration, infidelity and the shadows of beauty culture.
Skincare, created by Logan Lerman and Jonathan Schwartz, is yet to premiere at a festival but has created some anticipation around itself due to the premise of focusing on an often overlooked angle of the beauty industry. Judging by the trailer it seems this movie includes elements of political conspiracy and kick-assious framing of the American dream and the price that is so often paid for it.
It is rather telling that the film says, ‘Beauty is an ugly business,' and ‘Skincare' does not shy away from the concept, providing the viewers with a thrilling storyline and a hint of comedy. As this movie is yet to be premiered, this movie is reportedly on the list of tips to watch for anyone who has the interests of beauty and rivalry.
With the warm months approaching, look forward to ‘Skincare ' set and released on the 16th of August 2024, especially if you are an admirer of Elizabeth Banks or are a lover of heavy-accented thriller films. No need to watch the beauty industry's past events; this one is the most enticing one yet!
