'Bugonia' screening offered free entry to bald people

Entertainment

Focus Features threw a special screening for Yorgos Lanthimos's new film, Bugonia, where anyone bald—or bold enough to shave their head—got in free.
The idea was a nod to a memorable movie scene, but with time running short, organizers handed out bald caps instead.

How the internet reacted to this news

The switch sparked plenty of playful reactions online, with folks like writer Demi Adejuyigbe joining in the fun.
The crowd still went all-in on the theme, helping the film build buzz ahead of its limited theater release on October 24, 2025, and wider rollout on October 31.
