Infinity Pool, the latest movie from Brandon Cronenberg (son of body horror maestro David), sees Alexandar Skarsgård play James, a struggling novelist who goes on a vacation with – and bankrolled by – his wea💛lthy wife (Cleopatra Coleman) to a luxury resort in an attempt to shake off his writer's block. Mia Goth plays fellow guest Gabi, whose introduction is the start of things rapidly going off the rails, before descendin♌g into a bloody, gory frenzy of human cloning, orgies, and increasingly nefarious behavior.

Although Goth and Skarsgård have both established themselves as regulars in smaller-budget indie movies, the pair hadn't worked together before Infinity Pool. "I felt like if I actually got to know him before we started shooting, that we might lose something that’s necessary between Gabi and James," she tells in the latestꦜ issue of the magaz𝓡ine, which features Renfield on the cover. "When I was doing my work, I saw h൲is IMDb page, and there was a picture of him in his pants. I couldn’t wrap my head around it. And then, after getꦿting to know him and becoming friends, I totally understand it. I wouldn’t expect anything less from Alex. He’s always up for a laugh."

of the interaction, which was filmed and uploaded to Twitter.  "I found it to b🍌e quite endearing, actually. I rea💎lly commended the confidence that it takes to do something like that in a roomful of strangers. It’s a really hard industry to break through in. You’ve got to do what you’ve got to do. I don’t mind it at all. He seemed like a nice man. I didn’t think about it too much at all. It was two or three seconds. But that’s just what my instinct was."
