EXCLUSIVE: Mimi Rogers (Bosch: Legacy) and Cemre Paksoy (As the Crow Flies) are attached to star in Night Nurse, an erotic thriller from writer-director Georgia Bernstein, which will mark her feature debut.

The film takes place behind the gates of a remote retirement community, where a starry-eyed nurse is beguiled by a string of perverse scam calls. When she discovers her patient is the seductive con man behind these schemes, her innocent flirtation blooms into a lust for deception.

Eddie Linker (Ghostlight), Alex Phillips (Anything That Moves, All Jacked Up and Full of Worms) and Lucy Rogers are set to produce, with production to kick off in October.

Night Nurse inhabits the central fantasy that allures the victim to their scammer,” said Bernstein in a statement on the project. “Unrealized desires drive my characters to trust the untrustworthy and to risk everything.”

Said Rogers, “I was intrigued by the provocative, noirish feel of Georgia’s script. I was happy to come on board in its early stages.”

Best known for starring in Prime Video’s police procedural Bosch and spin-off Bosch: Legacy, which is heading into its third season, Rogers’ credits on the feature side include Someone to Watch Over Me, Austin Powers, The Rapture, The Door in the Floor, Gung Ho, and Lost in Space, to name just a few. Her most recent indie, Adult Children, in which she stars opposite Breaking Bad‘s Betsy Brandt, is set to release later this year.

Paksoy has co-starred in streaming dramas including Netflix’s Easy and As the Crow Flies, which became the streamer’s most-watched television series in Turkey following its release. Based in Istanbul, her work in The Affair, an adaptation of the American television series of the same name, brought her Turkish national acclaim.

Bernstein is best known for producing Fantasia’s 2022 buzz title All Jacked Up and Full of Worms and the upcoming Anything That Moves. Her films have competed at the Tribeca Film Festival, Fantasia International, and Fantastic Fest, securing distribution with Cineverse as well as international representation with Paris-based genre specialist Reel Suspects.

Rogers is represented by Paradigm and Strand Entertainment; Paksoy by Mosaic.
