During the filming of MaXXXine which is the trilogy of previous horror films and is directed by Ti West, Hunter was offered to play the dead parishioner and was required for three days to capture the shots.

Mia Goth will reprise her role as Maxine who will continue to chase after fame and is willing to cross every line to achieve what she deserves in her life. The film is set to display jealousy, hate, and revenge including acclaimed actors like pop star Halsey, Lily Collins, Kevin Bacon, and other talented stars.

Currently, there is no official release date for MaXXXine.
