-
Warner Bros. unveiled the gripping trailer for M. Night Shyamalan's latest thriller, "Trap," starring Josh Hartnett, Ariel Donoghue, and Saleka Shyamalan, on Thursday. This upcoming film promises a chilling narrative, with Hartnett portraying a serial killer amidst the backdrop of a pop star's concert.
"Trap" follows the harrowing journey of a father and his teenage daughter as they attend a seemingly innocuous pop concert, only to discover themselves ensnared in a web of darkness and intrigue. Warner Bros. provided an exclusive sneak peek at the movie during this year's CinemaCon and subsequently dropped the heart-pounding trailer across social media platforms.
In the teaser, viewers witness Hartnett's character, accompanied by his daughter Jody (Donoghue), navigating the concert venue headlined by pop sensation Lady Raven, portrayed by Saleka Shyamalan. As tension mounts, Hartnett stumbles upon a shocking revelation in the bathroom: federal agents hunting down a notorious serial killer known as "The Butcher." The trailer crescendos with the revelation that Hartnett's character is, in fact, the elusive killer, thrust into a desperate bid for escape while holding a victim hostage.
Accompanying the trailer release, Warner Bros. tantalizingly dropped "Release," a haunting track by Saleka in her role as Lady Raven, available for streaming on www.ladyravenmusic.com.
"Trap" marks Shyamalan's debut feature under the Warner Bros. banner following his transition from Universal, a move announced in August 2023. Reflecting on this transition, Shyamalan expressed his commitment to Warner Bros.' legacy of cinematic excellence, emphasizing the studio's renewed dedication to filmmakers and the theatrical experience.
With its riveting premise and stellar cast, "Trap" promises to captivate audiences when it hits theaters, reaffirming Shyamalan's prowess in crafting unforgettable cinematic experiences.
