Emerald Fennel is flipping the script on what’s expected from a drama about British royalty. The ‘Promising Young Woman’ filmmaker’s upcoming film, ‘Saltburn,’ is an acidic look at the decaying youth of aristocratic families. Barry Keoghan stars as Oliver, who follows Felix (Jacob Elordi) to his family estate in ‘Saltburn.’
Emerald Fennel’s cast has the likes of Rosamund Pike and Richard E. Grant playing Felix’s parents. ‘Conversations With Friends’ breakout Alison Oliver also stars with a special appearance from Carey Mulligan. Full of psychological intrigue, ‘Saltburn’ could again find Emerald Fennele in the 2024 Oscar race.
