Lili Reinhart’s stans should have reached for the fire extinguisher before visiting Twitter because their girl had a fully-fledged thesaurus and she meant business. Her new movie, American Sweatshop, uh, carries a ring to it, doesn’t it? Oh, and— just in time for its announcement— is up for pre-order on Apple! But, and I quote, it was “a not-so-gentle reminder to stay off the Internet when you can” with a shoutout to some mods she knows— again, as with last week, on freaking point.

And just in case she hadn’t already wrecked the whole damn fandom’s vocabulary this time, the picture she posted was a selfie with the full crew, and it was damn near a burst of sunshine. There’s a production room that’s a mix of startup office and factory that just works a treat. People are lounging and suoer relaxed, yet there’s mad, practical energy in how they’re working, because indie film sets aren’t like the monstrous studio messes. You can see the piece of the world the mob’s trying to save, and it feels good to not have to think of shaking your head at their boss or hoping Doofenshmirtz invents a -inator that fixes the lower management. It’s nice to have a story land in the hopeful part of the mouse pad. It looks like the new project has swallowed a bit of her, too.
Of all people, megafans of American Sweatshop were quick to the ring, or rather, the emergency exit. After the first glimpse of what the movie looks like, the comments have been hit with what can only described as a worldwide love lockdown, and I do mean every corner— from Europe to Canada to Portugal, everyone is firing on full cylinders. It’s one thing to get loud and flop around in love-bee circles, but it’s another to unironically write global love essays in the form of “Lemme sort Netflix and VPN results for this thing.” One person is planning to drive for two solid hours just to lay eyes on theatre’s finest catheter, which really sets a new standard of excellence in someone’s love language. On top of that, the world slowly fell apart more and more as someone asked for “streaming options,” and, in Europe, confessed “I’m excited for this film.”

Judging by the impressions, you might assume that her followers were merely oblivious of the excitement surrounding the release of the new movie and, therefore, are set to appreciate the upcoming horror film in its place. However, judging by Lili Reinhart’s recent post, which is associated with vague messages to the film and the trailers, many are under the impression that the soon to come movie falls under a horror genre. In fact, as one person put it, “You are the only person who could get me watching a horror movie.” It is a testament to the deep connection Lili Reinhart possesses with the audience. In a world she inhabits, people are prepared to let her call the shots.
