First-time director Zoë Kravitz and her fiancé Channing Tatum’s new thriller "Blink Twice" has finally hit theaters, and with a twist ending like that, it seems fans will finally have something to discuss other than their joint red carpet appearances and Tatum’s viral Gambit memes. I had a chance to sit down with the stars of the film, Tatum and Naomi Ackie, and they discussed that massive climax and the challenges of playing a twist ending. First, let’s recap the twist in question.
WARNING. This article contains SPOILERS for "Blink Twice" beyond this point.
Naomi Ackie’s Frida meets Channing Tatum’s Slater King, a tech billionaire recovering from his cultural shaming public cancellation. He invites her to join him, a gaggle of his degenerate friends and their dates to his private island which, at the time, seems like a dream come true for the broke, struggling Frida. During the day, they drink bottomless glasses of champagne, smoke weed and lounge by the pool. In the evening, they eat fancy dinners, trip on hallucinogenics and dance in the garden with reckless abandon. Late at night, however, something far more sinister is taking place.
