MIA GOTH
The rising star behind Maxine talks Infinity Pool and her X trilogy
Words by Jack Shepherd
Mia Goth’s trapped in a Berlin hotel room, having been whisked straight there from an airport. “I haven’t seen any of the city yet,” she says. “I’ve just been in the hotel.” This isn’t the beginning of a horror movie (we hope), but the reality of doing press junkets at the Berlin Film Festival. The actor – who has become one of the buzziest names in show business thanks to leading roles in X and Pearl – is here to promote her spectacular, trippy, terrifying new movie Infinity Pool, from the cursed mind of Brandon Cronenberg.
Although Goth doesn’t think she gives good interview answers, SFX would like to differ after she reveals new details about MaXXXine, the final instalment in the X trilogy.
