Focus Features rolled out new footage from some of its highly anticipated upcoming films during its portion of Universal’s CinemaCon presentation Wednesday, including a quick teaser for Yorgos Lanthimos’ next movie Bugonia. The film is a reteam for Lanthimos and his Kinds of Kindness stars Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons and hits domestic theaters November 7.

Not when they are pretending to be something other than their true selves...Because anything else is a cage impossible to live in.

"My dream for everyone is to remember who they are and to be who they are regardless of what might be disrupting their ability to be free.
