Sacrifice—loosely inspired by the Joan of Arc story—follows Joan (Taylor-Joy), a zealous spirit driven by a volcanic prophecy only she can hear. On a mission to save the world from a fiery reckoning, Joan, along with her militia of mystical disciples, hijacks a glamorous charity gala and takes three hostages: Mike Tyler (Evans)—a beleaguered movie star desperate for redemption—Bracken (Vincent Cassel)—the world’s richest man—and Katie (Ambika Mod), who’s simply unlucky. Together, they are forced on a journey through forest and fire, until Mike faces the ultimate question: what would he sacrifice for humanity?

Directed by Romain Gavras from a screenplay he co-wrote with Will Arbery, Gavras’ most recent feature, Athena, was nominated for a Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival in 2022.

The cast of Sacrifice includes Taylor-Joy as Joan, a zealot on a mission to save the world from a fiery reckoning; Evans as Mike Tyler, a movie star kidnapped by Joan; Cassel as Bracken, the world’s richest man who is also kidnapped by Joan; and Mod as Katie, an unlucky woman caught up in Joan’s mission. The film also features Hayek, Sam Richardson, John Malkovich, Charli XCX, Yung Lean, Jade Croot, Jeremy O. Harris, and Miriam Silverman.

Iconoclast is producing the satirical film with Robert Walak, Jacob Perlin, and Romain Gavras, alongside Gregory Jankilevitsch and Klaudia Smieja-Rostworowska of Mid March Media, and Giorgios Karnavas of Heretic. The film’s executive producers include Taylor-Joy, Evans, and Arbery.

Co-financing is provided by Mid March Media and Film4, with the production also backed by Gucci, Head Gear Films, Onassis Culture, and the Athens Festival. Kate Glover serves as a co-producer, while Solent Film handles production services in Bulgaria. The film is an official Greece and UK co-production.

Sacrifice is scheduled for release in theaters in 2025, with the exact date to be revealed soon.
