Checking Out “Hotel Artemis”

In her first on-screen appearance since 2013’s Elysium, Jodie Foster stars in the disturbing new futuristic crime thriller Hotel Artemis directed and written by Drew Pierce. Set in Los Angeles in a chaotic 2028 where rioting is rife throughout the city, thieves make their way to the Hotel Artemis, a members’ only hospital for criminals. Foster plays the no nonsense hard-bitten Nurse, a high-tech healer who has to deal with the mayhem the night brings her. The film boasts an all-star cast with Jeff Goldblum, Sofia Boutella, Sterling K. Brown, Dave Bautista and Zachary Quinto.

The HFPA’s Gabriel Lerman and Mirai Konishi asked Foster and Sterling K. Brown why we should check in to see Hotel Artemis.
