Miller’s Girl Starring Jenna Ortega Sparked Controversy
Miller’s Girl, written by Jade Halley Bartlett, was placed on the Hollywood Black List of unproduced scripts in December 2016 after being acquired by Seth Rogen’s Point Grey Pictures.
It was announced in the middle of September 2022 that Lionsgate Films had acquired the movie’s distribution rights. Bartlett would also direct her script, with Jenna Ortega and Martin Freeman slated to feature. It was revealed a week later that Christine Adams, Dagmara Domińczyk, Bashir Salahuddin, and Gideon Adlon had joined the cast of the movie. Principal photography was conducted in Cartersville, Georgia, during the same month.
Public Reviews
(@bananasaregood8655)- The film is not gunna go the way most people are thinking. Ciaro and her teacher will not have an actual relationship, she’s just gunna make people think they did to ruin his life as revenge. She’s gunna win and he’s gunna lose, ciaro will always look more innocent than miller
(@frozenthingsstudios2452)- How come people were fine with May December and didn’t give it any controversy when that film also had that teacher-student romance yet this one didn’t get away with it?
Although the movie’s plot isn’t particularly novel, the final 20 minutes are incredibly captivating. I became so engrossed in the play that I literally forgot I was in a theater. The performers deserve kudos for the intensity of their real emotion. Gideon, Jenna, and Martin were outstanding.
