Is Julia Fox Getting Into New Jersey Real Estate? Realtors Fall for Fake Billboard

by

It’s not surprising to see Julia Fox on a poster, but what’s intriguing is the announcement that she can assist you in discovering your “eternal home.

An artful advertisement, situated outside a vape shop on Mott Street in Manhattan, particularly popular among downtown actresses, models, and temporary summer muses, proudly displays Fox as “Cece” from Specter Realty, acclaimed as the top realtor in New Jersey. It also provides a website and contact number for potential clients.

Or, more concisely:

Outside a local vape shop on Mott Street in Manhattan, a cunning billboard showcases Fox as “Cece” from Specter Realty, the leading realtor in New Jersey, offering a website and phone number for interested parties.

Indeed, it’s an intriguing, fresh advertisement for Neon and Steven Soderbergh’s movie titled “Presence.” The reference to “Specter Realty” is quite clever.

Absolutely, this appears to be a captivating new ad for the film “Presence,” directed by Steven Soderbergh and produced by Neon. The name “Specter Realty” is an appealing touch.

The phone number (908-905-CECE) leads to a voicemail system, and an agent from Neon informs me that they’ve received more than 1,500 messages. Many of these messages are from people pretending to be part of the joke, engaging in role play with Cece. Interestingly, despite this, no one calling had watched the movie when The Hollywood Reporter contacted them last week.

“Hey Cece, I’m still waiting for your response. By the way, while I was having a colonic appointment, I saw that you had left me a message about that charming little house in Jersey,” one potential buyer mentioned casually. “I don’t currently reside in New Jersey, but it might tempt me to move there since you seem to be such a nurturing caregiver!” another commented.

Some individuals who initially pretended to be interested in real estate, later revealed they were merely seeking an opportunity to converse with Fox and discuss their fascination with the unique cultural influence of the actor from “Uncut Gems.” One passionate fan even compared this fascination to the question ‘What would Jesus do?’ by saying ‘What would Julia do?’

Intriguing messages, making up about 10% according to Neon, came from other realtors who apparently believed that Fox was genuinely entering the industry. A kind-hearted realtor from Los Angeles left their contact information, assuming Fox was indeed a real estate agent, “if you’re truly in real estate, Julia,” to offer assistance and guidance. It seems the market is always favorable for agents, regardless of the season, which could potentially benefit Cece once people learn that her recent sale involved a supernatural element.

Instead of releasing the specialty film through a standard platform, its distributors opted for a nationwide debut. Over the weekend of January 24th to the 26th, this strategy yielded an opening revenue of $3.3 million across 1,750 cinemas. Given its production budget under $3 million, this is considered a promising start.
