Prepare to be spellbound! Lili Reinhart, the charismatic actress from "Riverdale," takes center stage in a tantalizing new teaser for the highly anticipated horror movie, "Forbidden Fruits." This film, produced by the renowned Diablo Cody, promises to be a captivating journey into the world of witchcraft and cults.
In "Forbidden Fruits," Reinhart leads a captivating ensemble cast, including Lola Tung, Victoria Pedretti, and Alexandra Shipp, among others. The story revolves around Apple, an employee at Free Eden, who secretly runs a femme-powered witch cult in the mall's basement after hours. Together with her fellow cult members, Cherry and Fig, they navigate a world of magic and intrigue. But here's where it gets controversial... a new hire, Pumpkin, challenges their dominance, forcing the women to confront their own dark secrets or face a bloody end.
The film, directed by Meredith Alloway in her feature debut, is an adaptation of Lily Houghton's stage play, "Of the Women Came the Beginning of Sin and Through Her We All Die." Diablo Cody, known for her unique and creative storytelling, couldn't resist the allure of this project. She exclaimed, "Forbidden Fruits grabbed me by the neck the first time I read it."
But this is the part most people miss: the film's production team is just as intriguing as its story. Producers Mason Novick, Diablo Cody, Trent Hubbard, and Mary Anne Waterhouse, along with executive producers Charlie Traisman and Katherine Romans, have come together to bring this magical tale to life.
"Forbidden Fruits" is set to release in theaters in 2026, and the new teaser, though brief, offers a tantalizing glimpse into the horror that awaits. Will the women's cult survive the challenges ahead, or will their secrets lead to their downfall?
