Plot

Walter Campbell and Jonathan Glazer adapt Michel Feber's novel of the year 2000 (which bears the same name) in a science fiction and drama script directed by Jonathan Glazer in "Under The Skin".

This film tells the story of Laura who, played by Scarlett Johansson, is an alien who adapts the shape of a mysterious woman who resides between Glasgow and the Scottish Highlands. Laura dedicates her free hours to seduce men, carrying out them in her van to their homes or the forest and performing different rituals with them, until at any given time everything changes.

You can discover the meaning of 'Under The Skin' through its footage, and always from the perspective of the alien woman, which implies Laura's life and how she relates to other human beings, especially men, whom she analyzes in a way special.

In this feature film, most interpreters are not actors in an official way, as is the case with Jeremy McWilliams, who is dedicated to motorcycles in a professional manner. Still, we can find some other name known as Antonia Campbell-Hughes or Paul Brannigan.

In Spain, the release date has been delayed over the years and is finally scheduled for April 2020, while in the United States, its country of production, premiered in August 2013.

Trivia

Too many hours of shooting

Adam Pearson and Scarlett Johansson had a competition to see who could tell the most inappropriate joke. Pearson won but says that Johansson put up an excellent fight.

Naturalness comes first

The men lured into the van by Scarlett Johansson's character were not actors. Jonathan Glazer had hidden cameras installed in the van and only informed the men afterwards that they were in a movie.

Every cloud has a silver lining

Adam Pearson, who plays the disfigured man who is lured into the vehicle, broke his leg when he was struck by a cab on his way to audition for his role. Director Jonathan Glazer auditioned him the next day at the hospital and gave him the job.
