Peacock has announced the release date for the upcoming streaming debut of Emma Stone‘s latest collaboration with director Yorgos Lanthimos. Stone’s sci-fi dark comedy movie Bugonia was based on 2003’s South Korean movie Save the Green Planet!
“A wildly entertaining psychological thriller, the film follows two conspiracy-obsessed young men who kidnap a powerful CEO they believe is an alien out to destroy humanity. What begins as a paranoid act spirals into a battle of delusions and control—one as viscerally unpredictable as it is provocative,” reads the movie’s official synopsis.
