Gigi Saul Guerrero Will Star in ‘Talking to a Stranger’ from ‘Late Phases’ Director

Late Phases and Here Comes the Devil director Adrián García Bogliano has wrapped his next feature, Talking to a Stranger (Spanish title: Hablando con Extraños).

Deadline reports that filmmaker/actress Gigi Saul Guerrero (V/H/S/85, “The Purge”) stars in her first leading role.

Written by Bogliano, the supernatural thriller follows a grieving mother haunted by a supernatural entity after the tragic loss of her child in a fire.

It’s produced by Mórbido Group, Prismaticoos Films, and Corazón Films, with the latter handling distribution and global sales.

“Talking to a Stranger is an incredibly rare combination of a deeply personal and disturbing film, yet also a high-concept piece with the potential to connect with a very wide audience, exploring powerful emotions,” said García Bogliano. “I’m incredibly fortunate to have found partners in Morbido, Corazon and Prismaticoos who are as committed to the script as I am.”

“Bringing Talking to a Stranger to life was an unforgettable journey. With Adrián García Bogliano’s masterful direction and Gigi Saul Guerrero’s electrifying performance, every moment on set felt like we were crafting something truly special, and we did,” noted Eckehardt von Damm of Corazón Films.

His producing partner, Javi Colinas, added, “The moment I started reading the script, I couldn’t put it down. From the first page to the very last word, the story had me hooked—it was gripping, unpredictable, fresh, and filled with the kind of tension that stays with you long after you’ve finished. I knew right away this was something special.”

Pablo Guisa Koestinger of Mórbido Films said, “Adrián is one of my closest collaborators, and I’m once again thrilled to bring his unique and powerful vision to the big screen. As for Gigi Saul Guerrero, she has always been a talented filmmaker, but now she’s ready to showcase a whole new skill set, proving just how incredibly talented she is as an actor.”

Shot on location in Guadalajara, the film benefits from Filma Jalisco’s efforts to position the region as a burgeoning hub for filmmaking in Mexico.
