Hugh Grant, recently seen hanging out with his family at a Taylor Swift concert in Wembley Stadium, tests the faith of missionaries in A24’s Heretic trailer. The trailer does a terrific job of teasing the horror in store for two young women who unwittingly walk into the home of a psychopath.
As the young women plead to go home, Mr. Reed (Grant) warns them that what he has in store will make their hearts beat faster and may even make them want to die. “Do not be afraid. You will witness a miracle,” teases Reed.
“Two young missionaries are forced to prove their faith when they knock on the wrong door and are greeted by a diabolical Mr. Reed (Hugh Grant), becoming ensnared in his deadly game of cat-and-mouse,” reads A24’s short but effective synopsis.
Yellowjackets‘ Sophie Thatcher and The Fabelmans‘ Chloe East stars as the missionaries who make what could be a fatal mistake.
Scott Beck and Bryan Woods co-wrote the screenplay and directed. The filmmaking team’s resume includes the script for A Quiet Place and The Boogeyman. Beck and Woods wrote and directed 65 starring Adam Driver and 2019’s Haunt.
Heretic opens in theaters on November 15, 2024.
