Barbie Ferreira stars in two contrasting new films this week: the horror reimagining Faces of Death, now in theaters, and the romantic comedy Mile End Kicks, set to premiere on April 17. In an interview, the actress reflected on leaving Euphoria in 2022 to pursue diverse roles and creative fulfillment. She described the projects as showcases of her growth as an actor.
Barbie Ferreira leads the cast of Faces of Death, a modern take on the 1978 mockumentary directed by Isa Mazzei and Daniel Goldhaber. Filmed in New Orleans in 2023, the film features Ferreira as a content moderator immersed in violent online clips, updating the original's themes for the social media era. 'I thought I learned a whole big lesson in Hollywood... You could shoot a whole movie, and it doesn’t even come out,' Ferreira said, expressing relief at its theatrical release amid past controversies surrounding the original.
