Before it debuts on Netflix next month, the trailer for Jeremy Saulnier’s (Blue Ruin, Green Room) new film, the psychological thriller Hold the Dark, which stars Jeffrey Wright, Alexander Skarsgard, James Badge Dale, Riley Keough, and Julian Black Antelope has been released, and is available to watch here…
Retired naturalist and wolf expert Russell Core (JEFFREY WRIGHT) journeys to the edge of civilization in northern Alaska at the pleading of Medora Slone (RILEY KEOUGH), a young mother whose son was killed by a pack of wolves. As Core attempts to help Medora track down the wolves who took her son, a strange and dangerous relationship develops between the two lonely souls.
But when Medora’s husband Vernon (ALEXANDER SKARSGARD) returns home from the Iraq War, the news of his child’s death ignites a violent chain of events. As local cop, Donald Marium (JAMES BADGE DALE), races to stop Vernon’s vengeful rampage, Core is forced on a perilous odyssey into the heart of darkness.
Hold the Dark is set for release on September 28th.
