A24 just revealed the brand new trailer for The Eternal Daughter. The movie stars Tilda Swinton, Josephy Mydell and Carly-Sophia Davies. You can catch it in theaters on December 2. Joanna Hogg brings her sixth feature to theaters with Martin Scorsese producing the picture. An artist and her aging mother head back to their former family home. However, with the house now serving as a hotel, the ghosts that live in the walls might be more literal than figurative. Interestingly, The Eternal Daughter was shot during COVID-19’s shutdown in Wales. Swinton and Hogg have worked together in the past on the Souvenir series. As an added quirk, Swinton is playing both sides of the mother and daughter relationship. It looks like quite the journey into the memory of this family.

Here’s how A24 describes the upcoming film. “An artist and her elderly mother confront long-buried secrets when they return to a former family home, now a hotel haunted by its mysterious past. Featuring a towering, deeply moving performance by Tilda Swinton, acclaimed filmmaker Joanna Hogg’s beguiling latest film is a brilliant and captivating exploration of parental relationships and the things we leave behind.”
Addressing the Ancient One in Her Marvel Work
Variety spoke to Swinton about her work with Marvel Studios on Doctor Strange. There has been a reestimation of her role as The Ancient One in the 2016 movie. However, some fans had been skeptical of the character being played by someone who was not of Asian heritage. Swinton actually agrees with those criticisms and sympathizes with the fans who felt like they needed to come forward and address it.
Swinton explained, “I remember at the time having a question mark in my own mind, and being attendant to the public response to the idea that a Scottish woman will be playing this character, and being aware that there was no resistance at all — there was widespread welcome — which shifted at a certain point, for very good reasons with which I had an enormous amount of sympathy.”
