Jessica Rothe will field questions from film fans in a live Reddit AMA next Wednesday, September 23, the actress and the r/movies community have announced. The thread is scheduled to open around 9 a.m. ET, with Rothe returning at 3 p.m. ET to begin answering questions in earnest.
The session arrives as Rothe prepares for the theatrical release of her newest film, Beware Boiúna, which Lionsgate will open in theaters everywhere on October 2. The horror feature follows a team of doctors who travel into the Amazon rainforest on a local medical mission. Their arrival quickly proves unwelcome, and the group draws the attention of an animal predator known as the Boiúna.
Rothe is best known as the lead of the Happy Death Day franchise, the time-loop horror-comedy series that made her a fixture in contemporary genre cinema. Her filmography also includes Valley Girl, Forever My Girl, Boy Kills World, and La La Land, the Damien Chazelle musical that won six Academy Awards.
The AMA format has become a familiar stop for actors promoting new releases, giving fans direct access to performers outside traditional press junkets. Organizers stressed that Wednesday's post is only an announcement and not the AMA itself, asking users to hold their questions until the live thread opens.
For Rothe, the appearance offers a chance to discuss both her new survival thriller and a career that has moved between studio musicals, romantic dramas, and horror comedies. Beware Boiúna marks another genre turn for an actress whose Happy Death Day role turned a repeating-death premise into a franchise.
Fans hoping to participate can find the announcement in the r/movies section of Reddit, where the AMA will go live next Wednesday morning.
