It has been revealed that Wolf Alice‘s frontwoman Ellie Rowsell has scored a new short film titled HERMIT, which stars Emma Corrin.
The actor shared a photo of the film’s poster in a new Instagram post. The caption revealed that HERMIT will be having its world premiere on the opening night of the London Film Festival. It will be screened on October 9 at 8:45pm at BFI Southbank in the Trials & Tribulations programme. Tickets for the screening can be purchased here beginning on September 17.
The caption also credits all of the producers, hair, and makeup artists who worked on the film. Rowsell was credited for her work with all of the music in the film.
At the time of writing, the ‘Don’t Delete The Kisses’ singer has not shared any of her work, contributions or film posters to any of her social media. As per The Line Of Best Fit, a synopsis of HERMIT reads: “Emma Corrin is mesmerising as a tortured artist grappling with fame and high expectations.”
Wolf Alice’s last release was 2021’s ‘Blue Weekend‘. In a five-star review of the LP, NME shared: “What goes up must come down, after all, but Wolf Alice themselves are showing no signs of descending any time soon. ‘Blue Weekend’ is another stone-cold masterpiece that further cements their place at the very peak of British music. Long may they remain there.”
The LP marked the completion of the BRIT Award-winning band’s three-album deal with Dirty Hit, and they confirmed at the beginning of the year that they have moved into a new deal with Columbia.
Things have been quiet for Wolf Alice as of late, but their song 2017 ‘Don’t Delete The Kisses’ made an appearance on the soundtrack of The Boys spin-off Gen V earlier this year. They are currently believed to be preparing their fourth album.
Back in May, the group looked back at their breakthrough EP ‘Creature Songs’ – 10 years after its initial release.
“10 years ago we released our EP ‘Creature Songs’ with Dirty Hit. we recorded it at ICP Studios in Brussels with our queen Catherine Marks,” the band wrote, sharing an update on X/Twitter.
“We were just four baby rats who liked quoting The Simpsons and liquorice rizzla and big muff pedals and that song by the vines that i can’t remember the name of but rocked my doc martens off,” they added. “It was a good time.”
