Gillian Jacobs is set to star and direct the upcoming American eight part anthology film.
Community actor Gillian Jacobs can be seen on screen in a new avatar and two challenging roles for her upcoming anthology film titled The Seven Faces Of Jane. Here she plays a mother who decides to break out of the mundane cycle of her life, drop her daughter at a camp and drive away into an uncertain world that is littered with obstacles of various nature. Despite looking promising in its initial release, this film has received mixed reviews from critics and audiences after it premiered at a film festival in 2022. Some described it as a “storybook which came to life,” whereas someone called it “just an interesting concept which looks good on paper.” Whether it’s the conflicted visions of multiple directors or not is still undecided by the mass audience as they await its release in theaters. Here is everything you need to know about this eight-part anthology series.
The film was initially premiered at the Bentonville Film Festival on June 22, 2022, and it will be released once again in select few theaters and will be available as video on demand from January 13, 2023.
The Seven Faces Of Jane consists of eight short films which follow the journey of Jane, who navigates her way through surrealistic and heart-touching experiences.
