\"Mimi<\/p>\n

EXCLUSIVE<\/strong>: Legendary has acquired Lauryn Kahn’s social thriller Fresh<\/em>, in a progress to production deal. Mimi Cave<\/a> will direct and Hyperobject Industries’ Adam McKay<\/a> and Kevin Messick<\/a> will produce.<\/p>\n

The deal marks Cave’s feature directorial debut. She began her career in the world of music videos and commercials directing films for Vance Joy, Danny Brown, Sleigh Bells, Sylvan Esso & Tune-Yards. Her shorts and music videos have garnered several awards and premiered at film festivals worldwide. Her recent short film I’m Happy, I Promise<\/em> was an Official Selection for 2020 SXSW.<\/p>\n

“Fresh<\/em> lives inside the discomfort or fear many women face every day and that’s what drew me to the script,” Cave said. “It is a raucous allegory for the commodification of women’s bodies. I want to create a visceral experience that takes the audience on a ride through a twisted world — where a woman’s instincts come into play at every turn.”<\/p>\n

\n

McKay and Messick go back with Kahn, starting with selling her first spec <\/span>He’s Fucking Perfect<\/em> to Fox and producing her romantic comedy<\/span> Ibiza<\/em> for Netflix. The social thriller genre represents a new turn for Kahn as a writer, who brought her latest spec exclusively to Hyperobject to put together. Kahn will be Executive Producer on the film.<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/article>\n

McKay and Messick most recently produced Vice,<\/em> the Dick Cheney film which received eight Oscar noms, six Golden Globe and BAFTA noms and a DGA nomination for McKay. They are executive producers of  HBO’s Succession<\/em>, which won the Golden Globe for Best Drama Series and BAFTA’s Best International Series. McKay and Messick also won the PGA Award for Outstanding Producer of Episodic Television-Drama for Succession. As a director, McKay next helms for Netflix the Jennifer Lawrence-starrer Don’t Look Up.<\/p>\n

Hyperobject Industries is represented by WME and Ziffren Brittenham; Cave is CAA, 3 Arts and attorneys Kim Jaime and Adam Cooper. Kahn is represented by attorney Tara Kole.<\/p>\n
