The young Lily-Rose Depp is a true rising star in Hollywood. After brilliantly playing Ellen Hutter in the very disturbing vampire film Nosferatu directed by Robert Eggers, the daughter of Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis will soon return to our cinemas in an even more shocking and unhealthy feature film.
After Nosferatu, Lily-Rose Depp is sinking even deeper into darkness
Lily-Rose Depp is following in her father's footsteps and is gradually creating a real place for herself in Hollywood. For several years now, the young actress has continued to star in genre films that showcase her talent, and her latest performance is none other than in the remake of the film Nosferatu the 1922 vampire, a performance that earned her the 2025 Satellite Awards for Best Actress.
Some might think that a single film with such dark themes would be enough for the young woman: we're talking about manipulation and control, like Bram Stoker's novel Dracula, which inspired Nosferatu. Not so, and Lily-Rose seems determined to push these limits in a film scheduled for filming in 2026. The young Depp will star in The Dark Outside, a film adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's second novel. This American writer The iconic film is particularly well-known to the general public for his excellent post-apocalyptic tale The Road, which was brought to the screen in 2009 with Viggo Mortensen in the title role, as well as for No Country for Old Men, adapted by the Coen brothers.
The Dark Outside will immerse us in the adventures of an incestuous couple, a brother (Culla) and a sister (Rinthy) who live in a miserable shack in the heart of the Appalachian mountain range in the southern United States. From this forbidden love, a child is born and while Rinthy is still unconscious Following the birth, Culla decides to get rid of her by abandoning her in the forest. When the young mother wakes up, she sets off in despair to find her child, and her brother, feeling guilty, soon sets off in pursuit of her in an impossible search for redemption. Along the way, these protagonists will be confronted with gratuitous and blind violence, as bloody as it is merciless. A film that promises even darker themes than what Lily-Rose Depp has already addressed in Nosferatu. In any case, the film is likely to make a big splash!
