Zoë Kravitz addressed the comparisons being made between Channing Tatum's character in the film 'Blink Twice' and Jeffrey Epstein, emphasizing that the character and story are metaphorical and not based on Epstein. Kravitz, who makes her directorial debut with the film, co-wrote it with E.T. Feigenbaum. The movie follows Naomi Ackie's character Frida, who goes on an island vacation with billionaire Slater King (played by Tatum), leading to darker events.
The film has been described as a blend of 'Get Out' and 'Promising Young Woman,' focusing on social satire, class warfare, and gender politics. Kravitz explained that the island setting was chosen to isolate the characters and explore power dynamics, drawing inspiration from themes like the Garden of Eden and Lord of the Flies.
