Coralie Fargeat’s smash hit sci-fi satire The Substance returns for a fresh round of encores hot off of its Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy Motion Picture Golden Globe Award for Demi Moore!

Moore plays Elisabeth Sparkle, a fading celebrity who, desperate to regain her youthful looks, turns to a mysterious black-market drug known as “The Substance.” This cell-replicating liquid temporarily creates a younger, enhanced version of those who ingest it — but their rejuvenation comes with horrifying consequences.

Blending satirical commentary on society’s obsession with beauty and aging with shocking body horror elements, Fargeat’s visual storytelling, and the film’s bold performances – particularly from Moore – have garnered early praise following its premiere at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, where it took home the award for Best Screenplay. The Substance is a bold and unsettling exploration of the lengths people will go to defy aging, with Fargeat continuing to push boundaries in the horror genre.

Through its fragmented narrative, kinetic cinematography, and surreal atmosphere, the story captures the yearning for human connection amid the alienation of urban life
