Jeremy Allen White will accompany Jessie Buckley and Riz Ahmed in front of the cast of ‘fingernails’, the second film as director of the Greek Christos Nikou, responsible for that ‘Apples’ that El Sur Films premieres in our country at the end of 2021. Nikou himself signs the script along with Sam Steiner and Stavros Raptis, also co-writer of his first feature film . Described as a “romantic sci-fi story”, ‘fingernails’ be a surreal drama set in a world where there is a test that measures whether couples are really in love, and to help couples overcome it, “love institutes” have been opened. Anna (Buckley) is skeptical about the positive result she has received with her longtime partner (White), so she starts working at one of these institutes as an assistant to Trevor (Ahmed), a mysterious and dedicated instructor. The film is a production of Cate Blanchett’s Dirty Films and FilmNation Entertainment and will be distributed worldwide by Apple. This will be the first film shot in English by Nikou, who before making his directorial debut with the aforementioned ‘Apples’ worked as assistant director to Yorgos Lanthimos (in ‘Canine’) or Richard Linklater (in ‘Before Nightfall’). Known above all for playing Phillip “Lip” Gallagher in ‘Shameless’, White is also the protagonist of what they say is one of the great television surprises of the year, ‘The Bear’an FX series created by Christopher Storer (‘Ramy’, ‘Dickinson’) whose first season will premiere on Star/Disney+ on October 5.
