Demi Moore, Margaret Qualley, and Dennis Quaid Star in Coralie Fargeat's The Substance
Ageism, Sexism, and Body Horror Take Center Stage
Prepare for a chilling and thought-provoking cinematic experience as Coralie Fargeat's The Substance hits the big screen. Starring Academy Award nominee Demi Moore and Emmy Award winner Margaret Qualley, this satirical body horror targets ageism and sexism in a visceral and unforgettable way.
Moore delivers a tour-de-force performance as Sarah, an aging fashion designer who finds herself trapped in a surreal and nightmarish world. After being attacked, she undergoes a gruesome transformation that tests her limits both physically and emotionally. Dennis Quaid co-stars as her estranged husband, who remains oblivious to the horrors she endures.
The Substance marks a triumphant return for Moore, who hasn't headlined a film since 2016. Her vulnerability and raw emotion shine through every frame, making her character's plight both relatable and heartbreaking. Qualley is equally captivating as Sarah's estranged daughter, her youthful idealism clashing against the darkness that consumes her mother.
