The Final Girls?

Nina Dobrev's Latest Film, The Final Girls,

Premiering at SXSW 2015

 

We’ve been dying to see Nina Dobrev’s new meta-horror film The Final Girls since the Vampire Diaries star showered us with hilarious Instagrams from its filming last summer. And that moment is finally here — well, if you managed to snag a ticket to this year’s South By Southwest Festival. Check out the deets!

“It's official!! #FINALGIRLS will be premiering/opening SXSW on Friday the 13th of March! #regram @straussschulson,” Nina tweeted, along with a link to a WhoSay photo of Austin’s Paramount Theatre. Yep, this girl seems excited!
And rightfully so. The Final Girls sounds awesome. Starring Malin Akerman and Taissa Farmiga in the leads, it will tell the story of a girl and her friends who are transported into an iconic ‘80s horror flick starring the girl’s recently-deceased mother. According to The Hollywood Reporter, “The group must try to survive the movie and defeat its crazed killer.” Sounds great, right?
Nina will be playing the “alpha ex-best friend,” which has us worried about her chances of survival. Also starring is Silicon Valley’s Thomas Middleditch, Workaholics’ Adam Devine, and The Hunger Games’ Alexander Ludwig. The gang seemed to have a lot of fun filming the movie together in Louisiana last summer. Maybe it was the welcome baskets? We’re still waiting for Nina to get the kind of film roles she deserves, but — in the mean time — The Final Girls sounds like an excellent movie to be a part of.
The SXSW Film Festival will run from March 13 to March 21 in Austin, Texas. Mark your calendars, ticket holders!
