The cast list for MaXXXine, the third film in Ti West’s X series, has been announced, and it’s pretty star-studded. Kevin Bacon, Giancarlo Esposito, Elizabeth Debicki, Bobby Cannavale, Michelle Monaghan, Lily Collins, Moses Sumney, and Halsey will appear alongside Mia Goth, who’s the star. This list comes to us from Deadline.
Bacon has a long and noteworthy film career, such as Footloose, JFK, and A Few Good Men. One of Bacon’s earliest roles was in a little slasher movie called Friday the 13th, which you might have heard of. Spoilers to those who haven’t seen it, but he doesn’t make it. Though if there was ever a consolation prize to be had, Bacon does have the best death scene in the movie, at least according to ‘Dead Meat’ James A. Janisse.
