PRETTY LETHAL is an action/thriller with razor-sharp tension. This story follows five elite ballerinas travelling to a prestigious dance competition, barely speaking to one another after months of rivalry and resentment. When their bus breaks down deep in a remote forest, they’re left with no choice but to seek shelter at a desolate roadside inn run by the unsettling Devora Kasimer (Uma Thurman), a reclusive former ballet prodigy with a mysterious past.
The film features a dynamic ensemble cast:
- Lana Condor as Princess
- Millicent Simmonds as Chloe
- Iris Apatow as Zoe
- Maddie Ziegler as Bones
- Avantika as Grace
- Uma Thurman as Devora Kasimer
- Michael Culkin as Lothar Marcovic
Together, this talented lineup brings intensity, vulnerability, and edge to the high-stakes thriller, balancing youthful rivalry with chilling menace.
From the moment they arrive, the atmosphere feels off, quiet halls, lingering stares, and an undercurrent of menace that refuses to fade. Their instincts prove chillingly accurate as the situation spirals into something far more dangerous than they could have imagined.
Forced to confront a deadly threat, the fractured dancers must put aside their personal conflicts and rely on the very skills that once divided them. Years of gruelling training become their greatest weapon, as grace turns strategic, discipline becomes survival, and even pointe shoes transform into unexpected tools of defence. In this high-stakes fight for survival, perfection isn’t the goal—staying alive is.
