Development for Pearl began during the production of X, with director Ti West writing the film while also filming X. Filming for Pearl took place in secret immediately following the completed photography of X, with both films being made back-to-back in New Zealand while X‘s cast and crew were on hand. Pearl is set in 1918 during World War I, and will explore Pearl’s backstory and how she comes to be the villain she is in X.
