The ‘X’ prequel follows a younger version of the murderous woman. 

A24 has released the first trailer for ‘Pearl,’ the prequel of Ti West’s ‘X’. The film will follow a younger version of Pearl, played by Mia Goth, the murderous woman from the original movie, as she tries to become a star. 

“I’m trying to build a world out of all this, like people do these days,” West previously declared in an interview with IndieWire. “You can’t make a slasher movie without a bunch of sequels.”

‘X’ tells the story of a group of an amateur filmmaking team shooting a porn, but being interrupted by the old couple who lives on the farm.
