The Maggie Gyllenhaal The Bride project is officially alive and kicking — because actress‑turned‑director Maggie Gyllenhaal is remixing and rebooting one of horror’s most beloved fright tales.
Starring Jessie Buckley, Annette Bening, Penélope Cruz, Peter Sarsgaard, and Christian Bale, this marks Maggie’s second feature film as director, following her acclaimed debut on The Lost Daughter. And she’s not playing it safe — she’s going full monster‑mythology with a modern, electric twist.
