Since its world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival back in September–and its theatrical debut Oct. 29–Last Night in Soho has been well-received by critics and fans alike. At this time, no bonus features have been announced for the digital release.
The Focus Features film–directed by Wright from a screenplay he wrote with Krysty Wilson-Cairns–stars Thomasin McKenzie, Anya Taylor-Joy, Matt Smith, Diana Rigg and Terence Stamp.
Last Night in Soho follows Eloise (McKenzie), an aspiring fashion designer, who is mysteriously able to slip back into 1966 London and into the body of her singing idol, Sandie (Taylor-Joy).
While in Sandie’s body, Eloise enters a romantic relationship, but finds that “the glamour of 1960s London is not what it appears to be–and the past and present fall apart with shady and horrifying consequences.”
Wright–who also helmed such genre hits as Shaun of the Dead (2004) and Baby Driver (2017)–said he has always been fascinated by horror films. These movies, he added, have always been “something I’ve watched to watch and wanted to make.”
