Death Of A Unicorn: Cast, Story & Everything We Know About




There have been some exciting developments regarding the upcoming A24 horror comedy Death of a Unicorn. Death of a Unicorn aims to bridge two genres the studio excels at by joining the increasingly unrivaled stable of A24 horror films like Hereditary, The Witch, and Pearl and dabbling in A24-style comedy like Zola, Everything Everywhere All at Once, and The Disaster Artist. Death of a Unicorn, which has nothing to do with Peter Dickinson's 1984 book of the same name, is proving to be a popular comedy and horror book.

News about the film with the unique and intriguing title has been leaking since 2023. With some of the biggest stars working, it appears that A24 may have created something incredibly original and entertaining thus far. Not much is known about the film, despite the interest in it and A24's trailer, which indicates that it is well into post-production. Nevertheless, Death of a Unicorn's cast, plot, and shaky release date have been made public.

Recent News on a Unicorn's Death

The most recent announcement regarding Death of a Unicorn occurred on December 18, 2024, when the A24 page posted the movie's trailer on YouTube without warning.

A Unicorn's Death Is Verified

The casting of Jenna Ortega and Paul Rudd in Alex Scharfman's A Death of a Unicorn was revealed in May 2023 (via BudapestReporter). According to KFTV, filming started in July 2023. The movie is anticipated to open in theaters in the spring of 2024, despite the lack of an official release date (via Variety). Larry Fong, who most recently worked on Damsel and The Tomorrow War, directed the film. Daniel Davies, John Carpenter, and Cody Carpenter will compose the music (via TheWrap).

During the 2023 SAG-AFTRA Strike, a unicorn's death was waived.

A24 and the other production companies on the list are independent and not affiliated with AMPTP companies, so they were allowed to shoot Death of a Unicorn, which started filming around the same time as the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike (via Variety). Productions were permitted to proceed as long as they complied with the conditions set forth by SAG-AFTRA during negotiations. The studio's argument that the union's demands were "unrealistic" would be refuted, which would benefit the union's cause.

A Unicorn Cast's Death

The rest of the cast of Death of a Unicorn was released in November 2023, with the exception of Paul Rudd as Elliot and the A24 scream queen Jenna Ortega as Ridley (which made a particular screen grab from the trailer even more memorable for Alien fans) (via Deadline). The majority of their character names are still unknown, but the following have been revealed: Anthony Carrigan, Sunita Mani, Jessica Hynes, Stephen Park, Téa Leoni, Will Poulter, and Richard E. Grant as Dell Leopold.

Details of the Death of a Unicorn story

Death of a Unicorn, as the title implies, is about the mythological creature's unintentional death. In a secluded, luxurious cabin, Elliot is taking his daughter to his boss, Dell Leopold, for a management retreat when they unintentionally run over and kill a unicorn. When the unicorn's healing abilities are disclosed, Elliot and the Leopolds rejoice over their newfound wealth, despite their initial refusal to believe what they are witnessing. But everyone discovers that a unicorn adult and a foal are two completely different things when the unicorn's pack returns.

Trailer for Death of a Unicorn

The trailer for Death of a Unicorn gave away a lot of information about the film, including the fact that it is about unicorns, which was not necessarily the case before. The Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations" plays as the main plot of the movie is shown. The trailer gradually shifts from humorous to frightening as it becomes clear that the unicorn that Elliot and Ridley hit and killed was only a baby. Its parents are considerably larger and more hideous-looking. It looks like Death of a Unicorn will be a gory and hilarious film.

MobLand Episode 1 Ending Explained

A brewing conflict between rival crime families in the London underworld was given life by Guy Ritchie's star-studded new crime drama MobLand, which premiered spectacularly on Paramount+.

Snow White Ending Explained

  Although it expands the story in some ingenious modern ways, Snow White's ending is a suitable modernization of the original narrative. Snow White, which is based on Disney Animation's debut full-length motion picture, adapts the traditional fairy tale for contemporary audiences. The cast of Snow White includes actors like Rachel Zelger and Gal Gadot, who give their mostly accurate depictions of Snow White and the Evil Queen new depth. Though Snow White and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs share many similarities, the film's ending and certain aspects of the third act have been updated in some ingenious ways. In addition to giving Snow more agency in the climax and altering one of the story's most significant deaths, the new details even set up a new reimagining of a crucial aspect of the first movie. Here are the events of Snow White's conclusion and how it differs from the original animated masterpiece. In the new ending, Snow White formally becomes the queen...
