Het is bekend geworden dat Sarah is gecast in de nieuwe film ‘Year Of The Fox’, de opnames zijn inmiddels al afgerond.

Sarah Jeffery (The CW’s Charmed), Emmy nominee Jane Adams (Hacks), Jake Weber (Those Who Wish Me Dead) and Balthazar Getty (Twin Peaks) will star in Year of the Fox, the latest feature from award-winning director Megan Griffiths (Lucky Them, Eden, The Off Hours), which has wrapped production in the state of Washington.

The film written by Eliza Flug is a fictionalized depiction of teenage experiences and personal encounters she had while growing up in Aspen, Colorado, during the last of its utopian heyday. Set in 1997, it tells the story of 17-year-old Ivy (Jeffery), who was adopted as an infant into a wealthy and notable Aspen family and is now navigating the fallout of her parents’ bitter divorce.

Ivy’s mother, Paulene (Adams), prepares to relocate to her native Seattle, taking Ivy with her. But Ivy’s influential and controlling father, Huxley (Weber), pulls Ivy ever closer by inviting her and her friends into Aspen’s bacchanalian party scene, where Ivy’s attachment issues align with the predatory nature of a charming older man (Getty). As she watches her mother retreat, her father detach, and her best friend Layla (Lexi Simonsen) get drawn into a tricky world of elitism and validation, Ivy struggles to find her own path without stumbling.

Flug produced with Lacey Leavitt (Sadie, Safety Not Guaranteed) and Jennifer Roth (Blood Father, Mudbound).

“A reckoning has been taking place over the past few years regarding how our culture treated Monica Lewinsky, Britney Spears, Anita Hill, and so many other women who entered the public eye in the late 90s. I believe that Year of the Fox has something to add to this conversation,” said Griffiths. “It is a story that explores the dangers of allowing powerful men to dictate who you should be, and the freedom that can come with seeking that answer within yourself.”

Jeffery currently plays series regular Maggie in CBS and The CW’s Charmed reboot, exec produced by Jane the Virgin‘s Jennie Syder Urman, also playing Jennifer Lopez’s daughter in three seasons of NBC’s Shades of Blue, and portraying Thandie Newton’s daughter as a series regular on Audience Network’s Rogue. The actress has also starred on the TV side in final installment of The Disney Channel’s Descendants trilogy, directed by Kenny Ortega, recurring on Fox series Wayward Pines, exec produced by M. Night Shyamalan, opposite Matt Dillon, Terrence Howard, and Melissa Leo. Her film credits include Director X’s Across the Line, in which she co-starred opposite Stephan James, and Joshua Caldwell’s Be Somebody.

Adams is a Tony and Drama Desk Winner and Golden Globe nominee, who recently landed her first Emmy nomination for her guest-starring turn as Nina Daniels in HBO Max’s hit comedy series, Hacks. The actress has also appeared on the TV side in Netflix’s Messiah and HBO’s Hung, along with Easy, Sneaky Pete, Claws, Twin Peaks, Frasier, Relativity and more. Notable film credits include Amy Seimetz’s She Dies Tomorrow, Michel Gondry’s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Curtis Hanson’s Wonder Boys, Gus Van Sant’s Restless, Todd Field’s Little Children, Brad Silberling’s A Series of Unfortunate Events, Jake Kasdan’s Orange County, and Alan Cumming and Jennifer Jason Leigh’s The Anniversary Party. In addition to Netflix’s Easy, the actress has collaborated with Joe Swanberg on films including Build the Wall, Digging for Fire, All the Light in the Sky, Silver Bullets and Alexander the Last.

In his 30-year acting career across film, theatre and television, Weber has appeared in such films as Dawn of the Dead, Meet Joe Black, Learning to Drive, Midway, Berlin, I Love You, Head Full of Honey, Thank You for Your Service, Hungry Hearts, Amistad, The Pelican Brief and Born on the Fourth of July. The actor has found series regular roles in Medium, Homeland, Hell on Wheels and The Mind of the Married Man, along with a notable recurring role in Netflix’s 13 Reasons Why. He was recently seen in Taylor Sheridan’s film Those Who Wish Me Dead and will next appear in Vincent Grashaw’s thriller What Josiah Saw, along with the upcoming third season of Peacock’s Departure.

Getty is an award-winning actor, writer, director, producer, artist, musician, DJ, designer, and philanthropist who launched his career as a child actor with Harry Hook’s 1990 film adaptation of Lord of the Flies. The actor has starred in more than four dozen films, finding notable credits in David Lynch’s cult classic Lost Highway, Ridley Scott’s White Squall, and most recently, La Flamme Rouge and The Judge.

Sarah heeft een interview gehad met pop-culturalist.com waarin ze praat over haar nieuwe single ‘Suffer’ en over het vierde seizoen van ‘Charmed’.
.

Sarah Jeffery is an exciting triple threat who has the industry under her spell. From starring roles in projects including Descendants and Charmed to releasing her debut single “Even the Stars”, Sarah is captivating audiences in all facets of her career.

This October, Sarah continues to wow fans with the release of “Suffer”.

Pop-Culturalist was lucky enough to chat with Sarah about the inspiring message behind “Suffer”, tapping into her vulnerability, and what’s ahead for the Charmed Ones.

P-C: How did you discover your passion for acting and music?
Sarah: I started dancing at the age of three. I continued to dance throughout my whole childhood and teen years. Because of that, I was always very open to the arts and receptive to all different kinds of art forms.

My family is quite artistic. I was always bound to do something in it, which is funny because I initially wanted to do medicine, but I think I’m better off this way.

P-C: Who or what has had the biggest influence on your career?
Sarah: I always think back to the first project that I did called Rogue. I worked with Thandiwe Newton. I’ve always respected her as an actress, but then I got to know her as a human. My respect and love for her grew. When I think back on things that have really made an impact, I think of my time working with her and how lovely she was taking me under her wing. She made sure my first time on a set was comfortable, and she taught me a lot. I love her.

P-C: You’ve had a lot of success already in your young career. When you look back, is there a particular moment that stands out to you?
Sarah: Descendants definitely stands out as a time in my life where it was all coming very fast. It was very exciting. You never know how people are going to react to something, but people loved those films, especially my character in the third film. I had a larger role, and I got to sing. It’s when I realized that I had people who looked up to me, people were dressing up as my character for Halloween, and there were Barbie dolls of the characters. It was a surreal meta moment.

P-C: You’ve got a new single out now. Tell us about “Suffer” and the inspiration behind the song.
Sarah: I was inspired by a breakup I had about four years ago that was particularly rough. Everyone can relate to that in one way or another, whether it’s a romantic relationship, a friendship, a family dynamic, it can be rocky. Sometimes they end in a way that really sticks with you.

For me, that happened about four years ago. It really forced me to get to know myself better and push through. That is the leading message for me with “Suffer”. It’s their loss and your gain because you get to know yourself better. That’s so important in every relationship—you can’t share the best version of yourself with someone else until you’re confident and solid in your own two feet.
