"The film will see Skarsgård play a British widower in the 1880s Pacific Northwest. He hires a Native American governess, educated in a Christian mission school, to teach his two daughters. 'While preparing the eldest for an arranged marriage, a force within her begins to awaken, threatening everything she has been taught,' the logline continues. The governess is to be played by Darla Contois, while Bronte Carmichael and Lily La Torre portray Skarsgård's daughters."
"The film will be co-penned by Mesén and Icelandic novelist, poet and screenwriter Sjón. Sjón's previous screenwriting credits include The Northman, Lamb and also the upcoming Werwulf. The film is said to deepen Mesén's "signature blend of intimate character work and magic realism, expanding it into a darker, more haunting period world." "I feel incredibly lucky to work with a cast who dive into their roles with such generosity, playfulness, and opennes"
Alexander Skarsgård will star in The Wolf Will Tear Your Immaculate Hands, the English-language debut of Swedish-Costa Rican writer-director Nathalie Álvarez Mesén. The film is currently in production and follows a British widower in the 1880s Pacific Northwest who hires a Native American governess educated in a Christian mission school to teach his two daughters. The eldest begins to awaken to a force that threatens her upbringing while preparations for an arranged marriage proceed. Darla Contois plays the governess, with Bronte Carmichael and Lily La Torre as the daughters. Mesén co-wrote the film with Icelandic novelist Sjón, and the project extends magic-realist intimacy into a darker period world.
