Here’s where we admit something about our take on Julia Fox that you might find a bit surprising: We’re buying whatever it is this lady’s selling.

Let’s start with this: If you never caught her in Uncut Gems or Presence (in which she has exactly one minute to impress and manages it) or Night Always Comes (where she gets only slightly more than a minute and still manages it) you might not realize that she’s a legitimate actress and she’s no slouch. We’re not suggesting an Oscar any time soon, but if you only looked at her red carpet appearances, you might assume her talent level was somewhere low on the Kardashian Scale, but she’s got serious screen presence and she’s legitimately entertaining to watch. We won’t fault her for not dressing like a prestige actress because that’s not really her vibe. She’s gotten slightly better at the promotional stuff, which was, for a period, all about stepping out as naked as she could get away with. Now she’s figuring out that she can use fashion to get the same kind of attention without necessarily compromising her future employment opportunities. This isn’t chic and we don’t like it at all, but it’s about as high impact a red carpet look as you’re going to see this month. That’s her game. And to be fair, she looks beautiful here, even in this nutty outfit. That’s how you can tell that this is all considered and thought out. It’s only meant to look desperate and haphazard.

ABOUT THE MOVIE:
From Oscar® winner Jordan Peele and Monkeypaw Productions, producers of the landmark horror films Get Out, Us, Candyman and Nope, comes a chilling journey into the inner sanctum of fame, idolatry and the pursuit of excellence at any cost, featuring an electrifying dramatic performance from Marlon Wayans (Air, Respect).
Former college wide-receiver Tyriq Withers (Atlanta, the upcoming I Know What You Did Last Summer) plays Cameron Cade, a rising-star quarterback who has devoted his life, and identity, to football. On the eve of professional football’s annual scouting Combine, Cam is attacked by an unhinged fan and suffers a potentially career-ending brain trauma.
Just when all seems lost, Cam receives a lifeline when his hero, Isaiah White (Marlon Wayans), a legendary eight-time Championship quarterback and cultural megastar, offers to train Cam at Isaiah’s isolated compound that he shares with his celebrity influencer wife, Elsie White (Julia Fox; Uncut Gems, No Sudden Move). But as Cam’s training accelerates, Isaiah’s charisma begins to curdle into something darker, sending his protégé down a disorienting rabbit hole that may cost him more than he ever bargained for.
The film features a dynamic supporting cast including alternative comedy legend Tim Heidecker (First Time Female Director, Us) and Australian comic Jim Jefferies (The Jim Jefferies Show), plus MMA heavyweight fighter Maurice Greene and hip hop phenoms Guapdad 4000 and Grammy nominee Tierra Whack, all three in their feature film debuts.
HIM is directed by Justin Tipping (Kicks) from an acclaimed Black List screenplay by Zack Akers & Skip Bronkie (creators of the sci-fi crime series Limetown) and by Justin Tipping. The film is produced by Ian Cooper (Nope, Us), Jordan Peele (Candyman, BlacKkKlansman), Win Rosenfeld (Candyman, Lovecraft Country) and Jamal M. Watson (Hala, Sprinter) for Monkeypaw Productions and is executive produced by David Kern and Monkeypaw’s Kate Oh.
