‘Trap’: M Night Shyamalan drops second trailer for his new movie

Director M Night Shyamalan, who is known for horror classics like The Sixth Sense, has dropped the second trailer for his next film, Trap.

The serial killer thriller is the director’s follow-up to 2023’s polarizing Knock at the Cabin, though he did executive produce daughter Ishana Shyamalan’s The Watchers in the meantime.


Starring Josh Hartnett and Ariel Donoghue in lead roles, Trap revolves around a father and teen daughter who attend a pop concert, where they realize they are at the center of a dark and sinister event.

Hartnett is a doting father by day and a serial killer by night who is wanted by cops. Once he realises that he is trapped at a famous pop star's concert with his daughter (Ariel Donoghue) which was elaborately set by the cops, he unleashes his inner evil nature and causes chaos at the venue, hoping to escape from hundreds of policemen without a trace.

Trap co-stars Ariel Donoghue, Hayley Mills, Alison Pill, Marnie McPhail, and Vanessa Smythe, plus Saleka Shyamalan as “Lady Raven,” the pop star turned snare.

The film is produced by Ashwin Rajan, Marc Bienstock, and Shyamalan.

Warner Bros will debut Shyamalan's Trap in theaters starting on August 2nd, 2024.

'The Social Reckoning' review: Aaron Sorkin’s Facebook sequel turns the algorithm into the villain

Highlights

  • The Social Reckoning revisits the world of Facebook 16 years after The Social Network
  • Aaron Sorkin turns his attention to misinformation, extremism and the consequences of Facebook’s algorithms
  • Mikey Madison and Jeremy Allen White lead the film as whistleblower Frances Haugen and journalist Jeff Horwitz
  • Jeremy Strong plays Mark Zuckerberg in a deliberately unusual performance
  • The film makes a strong case against Facebook while sometimes leaning into Sorkin’s trademark self-righteous dialogue

Aaron Sorkin returns to the world of Facebook with The Social Reckoning, but this time the story is less interested in how the social media giant was created and more concerned with what it has become.

Sixteen years after Sorkin wrote The Social Network, the filmmaker returns as both writer and director for a whistleblower thriller centred on former Facebook data engineer Frances Haugen and Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz. Mikey Madison plays Haugen, while Jeremy Allen White takes on the role of Horwitz.
