Kate Lyn Sheil and Jane Adams both worked with Amy Seimetz in the past.
So when the opportunity arises with She Dies Tomorrow, the two actresses jumped on the chance for a reunion in this indie movie.
With Amy Seimetz at the helm, Sheil and Adams star in a film that mirrors the pandemic situation the world is going through today.
Here’s the synopsis:
After waking up convinced that she is going to die tomorrow, Amy’s carefully mended life begins to unravel. As her delusions of certain death become contagious to those around her, Amy and her friends’ lives spiral out of control in a tantalizing descent into madness.
The movie also stars Kentucker Audley, Katie Aselton, Chris Messina, Tunde Adebimpe, Jennifer Kim, Olivia Taylor Dudley, Michelle Rodriguez, Josh Lucas, and Adam Wingard.
