Warner Bros. releases the first trailer for Trap, a new twisty thriller directed by M. Night Shyamalan starring Josh Hartnett.
. The plot revolves around a father taking his daughter to a pop concert; however, when he steps away to use the bathroom, he realizes the whole event is secretly a ploy to catch a dangerous serial killer.
The trailer also seems to reveal that Hartnett’s character may be the killer in question, as he appears to be holding someone hostage against their will.Along with Hartnett , Trap stars Ariel Donoghue, Saleka Shyamalan, Hayley Mills, and Allison Pill. “A father and teen daughter attend a pop concert, where they realize they’re at the center of a dark and sinister event,” the official synopsis for the movie reads.
Shyamalan wrote the script for Trap and produced the movie alongside Ashwin Rajan and Marc Bienstock. Steven Schneider serves as an executive producer., Shyamalan spoke about wanting to tell a story “from the vantage point of an unexpected person” during a Los Angeles event called The Summer of Shyamalan. “It kind of led more and more to this dark humor angle that Servant has and The Visit and Split had,” he said.
Speaking further about Hartnett’s casting, Shyamalan said, “What I’m looking for is someone that’s willing to just let go completely, give themselves over like a play to the movie and leap, leap, leap — don’t protect yourself. That beautiful electricity that requires the right actor at the right time in their life. And that’s where Josh was when I met him.”Brandon Schreur has been writing about comics, movies, television shows, and all things pop culture for roughly five years.
