Emma Mackey Set to Join Molly Gordon in A24’s New Comedy ‘Peaked’
A24 is set to produce and finance a new film, collaborating with Topic Studios, which previously partnered with director Gordon on Theater Camp, to co-finance the project.
The upcoming film centers on two high school friends who, notorious for their behavior back in the day, attempt to relive their glory years during their 10-year reunion. The production team includes David Hinojosa and Zach Nutman alongside Gordon and A24, while Levitan is slated to executive produce. Filming is scheduled to commence later this year.
Emma Mackey, whose career has gained momentum from her role in the popular Netflix series Sex Education, is at the forefront of this project. Following the series’ conclusion in 2023, Mackey has transitioned to prominent roles in films such as Barbie and Alpha.
Mackey’s recent work includes a leading role in the James L. Brooks dramedy Ella McKay. Fans can anticipate her appearance in Netflix’s upcoming adaptation of Chronicles of Narnia, set for release in 2026, where she reunites with Barbie director Greta Gerwig to portray the coveted character of the White Witch—a role that drew considerable interest from many young stars.
Mackey is represented by CAA.
