Magpie (2024)
Magpie follows married couple Anette and Ben, whose lives begin to fracture when their daughter is cast alongside a glamorous movie star, Alicia. As Anette’s suspicions about Ben’s infatuation with Alicia intensify, their secrets and lies threaten to destroy them all.
Daisy Ridley (aka Star Wars’ Rey) stars opposite Shazad Latif (Star Trek: Discovery), with Fright Meter Award nominee Matilda Lutz (Rings, Reptile) as Alicia.
Adapted by Ridley’s husband Tom Bateman from her story, Magpie has an 83% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with Collider hailing the stylish neo-noir thriller as “completely and utterly terrific … Daisy Ridley at her best.”
