That includes original American Psycho star Chloë Sevigny—still considered, along with Zoë Kravitz, to be one of movie-making’s top performers whose name you have to copy-and-paste because the e with the umlaut over it is hard to remember how to type—who apparently pitched herself to Guadagnino to reprise her role as Jean,

As Hollywood patiently awaits a new Patrick Bateman, one American Psycho (2000) alum wants to reprise their role. Chloë Sevigny, who can next be seen in Luca Guadagnino‘s thriller After the Hunt, revealed she pitched the director on revisiting the character of Patrick’s secretary Jean in his upcoming adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis’ 1991 book.

Guadagnino’s “American Psycho” was first announced back in October of 2024. Scott Z. Burns is set to pen the script. The film will reportedly not be a remake of Mary Harron’s original cult classic, but an entirely new adaptation of Easton Ellis’ 1991 novel. Lionsgate is set to release the film.
