Modern Whore Doc: Andrea Werhun's Journey

On April 2nd, coming soon just dropped an exclusive trailer for Modern Horror, the new documentary

from director Nicole Bazooon and sex worker Andrea Wehrhun.

It's executive produced by Sean Baker, the guy behind the Oscar-winning Anora, where Wehrhun

consulted. The film had its world premiere at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival,

and its digital platforms for rent or purchase on May. First, 2026. This hybrid doc mixes real stories

with reenactments, pulling from Wehrhun's 2018 memoir of the same name. She dives into her journey

from escort to strip club work, sharing funny, tough, and eye-opening tales to flip the script

on sex work stigma. The trailer kicks off with Wehrhun owning her roles as writer, performer,

and sex worker. It spotlights her personal battles and features chats with other workers

on the risks and judgments they face daily. Baker jumped on board after Anora's big buzz last

year with Wehrhun helping shape that film too. The production team includes producers like Wehrhun

herself, Bazooon, and Lauren Grant, plus a lineup of execs steering the project. Word on the street

is, this could spark real talk about stereotypes in a bold way, keep an eye out when it drops,

it might just change how we see. Things, entertainment and celebrity news today,
