Alex Somers (Captain Fantastic, Honey Boy, Dawson City: Frozen Time, Together, Together, Miss Americana, Aloha, Charm City Kings) has composed the original score for the upcoming thriller Fresh. The film is directed by Mimi Cave and stars Daisy Edgar-Jones, Sebastian Stan, Jojo T. Gibbs, Charlotte Le Bon, Andrea Bang and Dayo Okeniyi. Lauryn Kahn (Ibiza) wrote the screenplay. The movie follows a young woman who accepts an invitation to an impromptu weekend getaway with her new boyfriend, only to find that her new paramour has been hiding some unusual appetites. Adam McKay (The Big Short, Don’t Look Up) is producing the Hyperobject Industries and Legendary Entertainment production with Kevin Messick (Succession, Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters) and Maeve Cullinane. Fresh will premiere next month at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival.
Somers’ other recent scoring projects also include Bradley & Pablo’s documentary Charli XCX : Alone Together, which premiered at last year’s SXSW Film Festival and is set to be released in select theaters and on VOD on January 28 by Greenwich Entertainment.
