Christopher Stracey (Maid, Cha Cha Real Smooth) has made his solo feature scoring debut on the upcoming thriller Manodrome. The film is written and directed by John Trengove (The Wound) and stars Jesse Eisenberg, Adrien Brody, Odessa Young, Sallieu Sesay, Philip Ettinger, Ethan Suplee, Caleb Eberhardt, Evan Joningkeit and Gheorghe Murensan. The movie revolves around an Uber driver and aspiring bodybuilder who is inducted into a libertarian masculinity cult and begins to lose his grip on reality. Riley Keough & Gina Gammell are producing the project with Ben Giladi (Pig) and Ryan Zacarias (A Chiara, The Mountain). Manodrome is premiering this weekend at the 2023 Berlin Film Festival.
Stracey’s other recent projects include Keough’s & Gammell’s feature directorial debut War Pony, which premiered at last year’s Cannes Film Festival and is set to be released in several foreign territories this year. No word yet on a domestic release date.
