Fingernails is an upcoming American science fiction romance film written and directed by Christos Nikou.
The film is slated to premiere at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival.[1]
A woman begins working at an institute that works to determine if the romance in a given couple is genuine.
The film was announced in January 2021, with Carey Mulligan starring and Christos Nikou writing and directing, marking the Greek filmmaker's English-language debut. Mulligan joined the project upon watching and being impressed by Nikou's previous film Apples.[2] No further developments would be announced until May 2022, when Jessie Buckley and Riz Ahmed were cast in the film, with Buckley replacing Mulligan.[3] Apple Studios would also acquire the rights to the film that same month.[4] In September, Jeremy Allen White joined the cast.[5] Luke Wilson and Annie Murphy would be added to the cast in December.[6]
Principal photography commenced in Toronto and Hamilton, Ontario[7] at the end of October 2022 and wrapped that December.[8][9]
