Bugonia: Emma Stone back with regular collaborators for black-comedy fun

Emma Stone and Yorgos Lanthimos have again teamed up with Irish company Element Pictures for their latest film 

 Emma Stone in a scene from Bugonia, directed by Yorgos Lanthimos. 

When Emma Stone and director Yorgos Lanthimos first worked together on The Favourite in 2018, a beautiful creative collaboration was born. Since then, the pair have reunited on several projects, including Poor Things in 2023, which earned Stone her second Academy Award for Best Actress.

Their latest collaboration, Bugonia, offers a darkly comic glimpse into the modern age of conspiracy theories and paranoia. Stone, 36, who also serves as a producer on the film, stars as Michelle, a ruthless CEO of a pharmaceutical company that manufactures drugs and pesticides.
