We’re starting the campaign to have the actress credited as M3GAN FOX in the new movie.
Artificial intelligence (AI) has been all the rage in the movies lately, thanks to the likes of The Creator, M3GAN (and its upcoming spin-off SOULM8TE), Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning, as well as this month’s new horror AfrAId.
Adding to this wave of films is the new Megan Fox-starring sci-fi erotic thriller Subservience, which recently debuted its first trailer and sees the Jennifer’s Body and Transformers actress play a robot helper turned seductive killer.
The plot synopsis reads:
“Megan Fox stars as Alice, a lifelike artificially intelligent android, who has the ability to take care of any family and home. Looking for help with the housework, a struggling father named Nick (Michele Morrone, Netflix’s 365 Days trilogy of movies) purchases Alice after his wife becomes sick.
“Alice suddenly becomes self-aware and wants everything her new family has to offer, starting with the affection of her owner — and she’ll kill to get it.”
In the trailer for Subservience – which makes it look like dark, lurid fun – Alice is shown seducing Nick while his wife, Maggie (Madeline Zima, Heroes), is in hospital.
This is before the robot grows jealous when Maggie returns home and a regretful Nick starts to shun Alice.
Directed by S.K Dale, who re-teams with Fox after they made the excellent thriller Till Death together, Subservience is set to be released on digital formats in the United States on 13 September 2024.
An Irish and UK release for the thriller has not yet been set.
