Alexander Skarsgård is set to star in a film titled Wicker, which is scheduled to release in France on October 21. The film follows an eccentric and solitary woman, played by Olivia Colman, living in a conservative coastal fishing village. After deciding to take control of her life, she hires the local basket weaver, Peter Dinklage, to create a husband made entirely of wicker. The wicker figure, brought to life by Skarsgård, causes a ripple of unexpected events, chaos, and romance throughout the community.
The trailer for Wicker generated significant online attention, with many noting how Skarsgård's portrayal of the wicker creature was perceived as highly erotic. The film's quirky premise and the actor's performance sparked a wave of humorous jokes and discussions on social media platforms.
The film's premiere was held on October 8, and Skarsgård took an unconventional approach to method acting by dressing in a unique way. He arrived at the red carpet in a golden, shiny costume that resembled an Oscar statuette. His choice of footwear also drew attention—transparent Saint Laurent shoes that had previously been the subject of ridicule a few weeks earlier.
Wicker is described as a darkly comedic and surreal film, blending elements of fantasy and drama. The movie has been praised for its imaginative storytelling and the performances of its cast, which include both established and emerging talent. The film's release in France is anticipated to bring further attention to its quirky narrative and the standout performances within it.
