Victoria Mahoney In Talks to Direct Her First Big Studio Movie!

Victoria Mahoney, who made history with her work on Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, is in talks to direct her first big studio movie!

The filmmaker was the first woman and first person of color to have a directing position in the Star Wars franchise when she became the second unit director for Rise of Skywalker.

Victoria is now in talks to direct the upcoming movie Kill Them All for Paramount Studios.

The film will be an adaptation of the graphic novel by Kyle Starks. THR reports that the project is described “as a love letter to 1990s action movies.” The story “tells of a betrayed murderess on a revenge campaign and a hard-drinking former cop who team up to take down a crime lord. Their nemesis rules from atop a 15-story Miami high-rise, so the duo must go floor by floor cutting through assassins, murderers, Luchadore gang bosses, ex-boyfriends and office workers.”

Victoria made her directorial debut with the indie film Yelling at the Sky in 2012 and she has directed episodes of Power and American Crime.
