Flesh of the Gods – Kristen Stewart and Oscar Isaac join the 80s set vampire movie from Panos Cosmatos

Panos Cosmatos brought us the trippy sci-fi Beyond The Black Rainbow, and 2018’s Mandy which starred Nicolas Cage. His next film will be Flesh of the Gods written by Andrew Kevin Walker (The Killer, Seven) from a story he worked on with Cosmatos.

According to Variety, Kristen Stewart and Oscar Isaac have joined the project.

“Flesh of the Gods” is set in “glittering ’80s L.A.,” where married couple Raoul (Isaac) and Alex (Stewart) each evening descend from their luxury skyscraper condo and head into the city’s electric nighttime realm. When they cross paths with a mysterious and enigmatic figure known as Nameless and her hard-partying cabal, the pair are seduced into a glamorous, surrealistic world of hedonism, thrills and violence.

“Like Los Angeles itself, ‘Flesh of the Gods’ inhabits the liminal realm between fantasy and nightmare,” Cosmatos said. “Both propulsive and hypnotic, ‘Flesh’ will take you on a hot rod joy ride deep into the glittering heart of hell.”

The film is launching in Cannes with WME Independent, CAA Media Finance and XYZ Films. It is produced by Adam McKay and Betsy Koch of Hyperobject Industries. Isaac and Gena Konstantinakos also produce for Mad Gene Media, the production company Isaac set up with his wife Elvira Lind.

Shooting is due to begin later this year.
