Movement Director on this feature, collaborating closely with lead actress Jessica Reynolds to develop a physical language rooted in primal, animalistic movement

Work involved intensive movement coaching, strength-building, and character embodiment work exploring the full evolution of the character’s journey from wolf to woman. The process included immersive training with a live wolf pack in Germany alongside handlers both in the den and in controlled training locations.

Movement development continued across rehearsals in London and into the full-scale production in Luxembourg. The result is a visceral, physical performance grounded in instinct, tension, and transformation.
