French filmmaker Coralie Fargeat is set to make her first studio feature, “The Substance,” an “explosive feminist take on body horror” that will star Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley. Deadline broke the news.

Plot details remain hush-hush, with the Universal Pictures and Working Title Films project set to go into production in Paris this May. Directing from her own script, Fargeat is set to also produce. Alexandra Loewy and Nicolas Royer will exec produce.

Fargeat made waves with her 2017 feature debut, the appropriately titled blood-soaked revenge thriller, “Revenge,” which captured attention with its unflinching portrayal of a young woman’s violent mission to get back at the boyfriend who had wronged her. As she explained to us in an interview, “the road [to getting the film funded and made] was not easy but I never gave up and I kept believing in the film even in the worst moments. Like with my and ‘Revenge’s’ heroine, I had to go until the end; there was no turning back!”

Qualley’s most recent work includes Netflix series “Maid,” for which she was nominated for a Golden Globe. She has also appeared in TV’s supernatural drama “The Leftovers” and Maggie Betts’ feature debut “Novitiate,” and received an Emmy nod for her supporting role in “Fosse/Verdon.”

Moore’s roles in “Ghost” and “If These Walls Could Talk” earned her Golden Globe nominations; her most recent credits include Peacock’s adaptation of “Brave New World,” and horror comedy “Corporate Animals.” She is set to next appear in the recent Rotterdam film festival opener “Please Baby Please,” co-written and directed by Amanda Kramer.

Fargeat’s short films “The Telegram” and “Reality+” picked up awards on the festival circuit before she made her feature debut with “Revenge” at TIFF. She has also directed on the upcoming series “The Sandman,” Netflix’s adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s graphic novel series of the same name.
