Fresh Cast & Character Guide
The comedy-thriller Fresh, which marks Mimi Cave’s directorial debut, brings back familiar faces in a different light. Written by Lauryn Kahn, Fresh follows Noa, a young woman feeling thoroughly disappointed with online dating. While shopping for groceries, she meets and takes a liking to Steve. Unfortunately, the new couple’s weekend trip is interrupted by the truth behind Steve’s motives. What seems like a romance story turns dark quickly, partly thanks to the cast’s outstanding performance and chemistry.
Distributed by Searchlight Pictures, Fresh is a collaborative project between Legendary Entertainment and Hyperobject Industries, the production company of Don’t Look Up director Adam McKay. Upon its online premiere at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival, the film has garnered positive reviews. Critics have praised the way Fresh has treated what could have easily been an absurd subject. Instead, with Kahn’s take on the horrors of dating, Cave’s work manages to tackle a relatable topic for most of its viewers with a satirical yet captivating twist.
