Erotic Queer Thriller ‘Saltburn’ to Star Jacob Elordi, Barry Keoghan

Jacob & Barry

‘Euphoria’ star Jacob Elordi and ‘The Eternals’ actor Barry Keoghan have been announced to star in the new erotic queer thriller ‘Saltburn.’

Directed by Emerald Fennell (Promising Young Woman), ‘Saltburn’ is described as “a wicked tale of privilege and desire.” 

The erotic thriller will follow the story of Oxford University student Oliver Quick (played by Oscar-nominated Keoghan) who becomes obsessed with a fellow student, “the charming and aristocratic” Felix Catton (Elordi). As Quick’s obsession escalates, he is then invited to Catton’s estate, Saltburn, where he experiences an unforgettable summer.

Keoghan was recently nominated for best supporting actor at the 2023 Oscars and bagged a BAFTA for his performance in the comedy-drama ‘The Banshees of Inisherin’ as Dominic Kearney. Meanwhile, Elordi is best known for ‘The Kissing Booth’ duology and for his portrayal as the heartthrob slash villain Nate Jacobs in ‘Euphoria.’

Award-winning actor Rosamund Pike is also set to join the cast in a yet-to-be-announced role. This marks her first film since 2020’s I Care A Lot. Alongside Pike is Oscar-nominated Carey Mulligan who earned an Oscar best actress nod in 2021 for her role as Cassie Thomas in ‘Promising Young Woman.’ Veteran actor Richard E. Grant will also play the Catton patriarch, Sir James.

‘Saltburn’ is written and directed by Fennell, and is produced by her ‘Promising Young Woman’ colleague Josey McNamara, ‘Barbie‘ Tom Ackerley, and Margot Robbie.

Principal photography for ‘Saltburn’ began in the UK last summer and has been confirmed to premiere on November 24. It will be shown first in New York and Los Angeles, before a wider rollout on December 1.
