They Will Kill You - Trailer Blends Horror, Action, and...Lots of Emojis

The new trailer for They Will Kill You, a new film blending horror and action, has arrived online, drawing attention for a rather unusual promotional choice. The teaser released by Warner Bros. hides the most violent moments with unexpected emojis, transforming the preview into a curious game between what is seen and what can only be imagined.

The film, which will arrive in Italian cinemas on March 26, aims for fights and dark humor in the style of John Wick. At the center of the story is Zazie Beetz, an actress known for Deadpool 2 and the series Atlanta. Her character falls into the hands of a satanic cult intent on sacrificing her during a ritual. However, the plan quickly takes a different turn: the protagonist fights back, and the situation transforms into a long night of clashes and a fight for survival.

A Killer Horde Against a Female John Wick

From the trailer's images, a film emerges that is not limited to classic horror. Alongside the nightmare atmosphere, there are very physical action sequences and moments of macabre irony, elements ready to make the experience even more dynamic and spectacular. The cast includes Tom Felton, Heather Graham, Patricia Arquette, Myha’La, and Paterson Joseph.

Kirill Sokolov (Why Don't You Just Die!) is the director, co-writing the screenplay with Alex Litvak (Predators, The Three Musketeers 2011), while the production is handled by none other than the creatives behind IT Andy Muschietti, Barbara Muschietti, and Dan Kagan (Longlegs).
