'Bugonia': Emma Stone, Yorgos Lanthimos reunite for wild sci-fi thriller
Director Yorgos Lanthimos and Emma Stone are back together for Bugonia, hitting theaters on October 24, 2025.
This time, Stone plays a CEO who gets caught up in an alien conspiracy, with the film mixing paranoia thriller vibes and some wild sci-fi twists.
If you liked their earlier dark comedies like Poor Things, this one promises even more of that offbeat energy.
Stone calls film 'alive' and 'messed up'
Inspired by the cult classic Save The Green Planet!, Bugonia dives into big topics like tech, war, and climate change.
Lanthimos says the story feels "even more relevant now, unfortunately," adding that "not much of the dystopia in this film is very fictional."
Jesse Plemons joins as a complex new character, while Stone calls the film "really fascinating and moving, funny and messed up, and alive"—classic Lanthimos style that leaves you thinking long after the credits roll.
