Jessie Barr Latest Celebrity News & Gossip

Sophie Turner has found her newest project. The former Game of Thrones actress is joining the cast of Jessie Barr's upcoming thriller Come As You Are. The movie will follow a young woman whose life begins to rapidly unravel when her social media career exposes her to society's darkest corners.

In a year that was completely batshit crazy and unpredictable, we still had quite a few solid films find their way to film festivals (often digital) even when the film industry seemed to completely shut down. And one of our favorite festival films from last year, the under-the-radar gem, “Sophie Jones,” is finally making its way to theaters and VOD, giving film fans the opportunity to discover one of the best indie coming-of-age films in recent memory.

“Sophie Jones” opens on its titular protagonist, played by Jessica Barr, as she fiddles with a bag of cremated remains. She rubs the ashes between her fingers, revealing a piece of fragmented bone which she raises experimentally to her mouth to taste.
