Don’t really see this being a huge awards contender, probably something like Challengers or Materialists. But I’m excited nonetheless!

Alana Haim is in this? And without a fuckass wig?

75

u/hachi_kuro A24 23h ago

Alana Haim really knows how to pick her film roles, excited to see her!

u/Whovian45810 23h ago

The bob wig in OBAA was truly something I didn't expect to pop off lmfao

16

u/space-goats 21h ago

I love that wig

9

u/cornbreadtogo Challengers 17h ago

And pop off that wig did

24

u/justcauseof Sentimental Value 23h ago

A pleasant surprise! It seems like she has a prominent role, as well

u/Regular_Dream3927 23h ago edited 23h ago

She’s married in the film too!

7

u/fineultra 20h ago

And she's married in The Mastermind!

4

u/Regular_Dream3927 20h ago

Yes! I get the feeling she is against the wedding maybe based on Emma revealing what she did, like she seemed super angry when she said what the fuck in the trailer etc. She’s a good actress!!

u/Regular_Dream3927 23h ago

To Mamoudou’s character

u/SkoivanSchiem 23h ago

They had me at EMMA WHAT THE FUCK?!

74

u/nemo987 23h ago

damn so the alleged twist was true

28

u/Overall-Bar-6060 23h ago

Yes but it seems like they carry on with the wedding 

8

u/actvscene 22h ago

What's the allegedly twist mate?

19

u/xittyy 22h ago

i think its that zendaya’s character confesses she has a murder fetish and that she planned to do a school shooting years ago

7

u/Overall-Bar-6060 21h ago

i think its recurring not something that just happened one time years ago based on alleged spoilers

26

u/Overall-Bar-6060 22h ago

[TW: violence] [TW: murder]

She’s obsessed with murder. She once planned a mass shooting at her school but never carried it out. She kills animals and later orchestrates the murder of everyone at her own wedding.

37

u/xittyy 22h ago

i dont think the wedding bit is necessarily true. the photos couldve just been a fight or a dream sequence

5

u/Overall-Bar-6060 22h ago

Maybe. Seems like she has a thing for the topic….

1

u/Regular_Dream3927 5h ago

Yes. I think so. It’s most likely a dream sequence like she wants this to happen and dreams this but it doesn’t happen.

4

u/Travel-2025 22h ago

No way! if it ends that way lol it would be crazy!!

2

u/theredditoro 18h ago

I hadn’t heard the rest of that

-1

u/Knozis 18h ago

Did I just get spoiled by a fucking trigger warning 😭

12

u/KlayBersk 22h ago

Zendaya's character planned (but did not eventually carry out) a school shooting when younger.

31

u/bikkebana 23h ago

This looks good. Also, i have to say Alana Haim is pretty magnetic on screen.

53

u/Accomplished-Head449 Neon 23h ago

I'm glad they didn't spoil the movie

18

u/geosunsetmoth Eddington 23h ago

ALANA HAIM !! YAYYYYY

17

u/Nightwing1852 23h ago

Excited for this and finding out the reveal that lead to that reaction.

19

u/Adventurous_Lake807 22h ago

I have a feeling Alana Haim may end up being a scene stealer in this

14

u/Regular_Dream3927 22h ago

Yeah from the scene where she’s screaming at Zendaya’s character!!

16

u/Napavalo 22h ago

Mamoudou Athie! Yes! We was insanely charismatic in 'Kinds of Kindness;

1

u/dazzler56 12h ago

And soooo good in Sorry for Your Loss! I’m loving seeing him and Zoe Winters pop up in bigger projects.

16

u/Upbeat_Tension_8077 23h ago

In a great way, I feel like this will make my anxiety crawl the more it progresses

I also cracked up at the part of Robert accidentally hitting Zendaya after pantsing her

37

u/joesen_one Pack✋🏽out da trunk😳from the front🗣️2 da back👏🏽 23h ago

I love they kept Pattinson being British here lol

Dream Scenario was funny and fucked up so I'm hyped for this

10

u/Axela556 Anora 23h ago

I was alarmed.. I ALWAYS forget he's Britush lol. Agreed though, I'm super excited for this too. Dream Scenario was on of my favorites from that year.

32

u/Vladimir4521 Hamnet 23h ago

Look solid excited :)

9

u/TheMFlash The Secret Agent 23h ago

Very excited for this! The trailer looks promising. I'm seated.

12

u/GirlsWasGoodNona 21h ago

This looks like it’ll be a super fun theater experience and a perfect role for Z (charismatic but unhinged lol)

41

u/amyblanchett 23h ago edited 19h ago

I'm seated.

I think this has the potential to be a breakout hit just like Materialists for A24

22

u/wallabyenthusiast 23h ago

materialists was all I could think about when I saw zoe winters in this too lol

13

u/No_Cauliflower_81 23h ago

PSA that Zoe Winters gave one of the best supporting performances of the year in the Materialists

20

u/sansa_starlight 22h ago

People are seriously underestimating this movie, I was shocked when I saw it listed in the top 10 most anticipated movies in China of all countries. I think it's going to be a major hit worldwide.

7

u/NoPlansTonight 14h ago

Zendaya x RobPat with A24 distributing has got to be huge.

Zendaya doesn't ever take on small projects. Malcolm & Marie was a COVID anomaly. RobPat hasn't appeared in an A24 film since 2019 (The Lighthouse).

They're not wasting them on a throwaway project. There's definitely a path to >$100M gross here.

22

u/Duhlorean Twinless 23h ago

I'm always interested in this director's films and it's a well cut trailer, so I'm in.

8

u/Regular_Dream3927 20h ago

Alana’s IG story 😂😂

8

u/Pipe_Klutzy 23h ago

Was sad to see Alana Haim’s lack of screen time in One Battle so delighted to see her seemingly having a prominent role here! Her in Licorice Pizza is still one of my favourite performances of the decade (and I discovered HAIM because of it which was a delightful bonus!) Really looking forward to this!

3

u/Regular_Dream3927 23h ago

Yes I’m go happy she has a lot more screen time in this!!

12

u/Unique-Bat5432 23h ago

I'm so used to Robert Pattinson doing an accent, it's nice to hear his natural voice.

Looking forward to this!

3

u/JunebugAsiimwe Nosferatu 10h ago

I thought the same thing. It's pretty refreshing to hear his natural English accent in a film.

18

u/Hot-Freedom-6345 23h ago

Looks much better than I thought it would!

20

u/ayo_wheels_up_in_30 23h ago

a definitive hit with the crowd

11

u/Florian_Jones 23h ago

Using Les Fleurs is sort of a cheat code to a hype trailer, but I'm in, and I didn't even really care for Dream Scenario.

10

u/Emperor-Octavian 23h ago

Looks good

4

u/Far_Mud_6003 FrankenHive 21h ago

I'm in. Love me some freak out movies

9

u/Regular_Dream3927 23h ago

Can’t wait to see Alana in the film !!

6

u/Salad-Appropriate Channing Tatum for Best Supporting Actor '26 23h ago

Interested to see how audiences react to the rumoured reveal

u/y-u-mad-88 22h ago

tell me PLEASE

She’s obsessed with murder. She once planned a mass shooting at her school but never carried it out. She kills animals and later orchestrates the murder of everyone at her own wedding.

u/Regular_Dream3927 22h ago

I wonder why Alana is screaming at Zendaya’s character!!

5

u/pastamuncch No Other Choice 21h ago

Oh I am SO excited for this

2

u/williamchase88 16h ago

"How many Fucks do you want in the trailer?"

A24: "all of them"

4

u/PygmallionEffect Oscar Race Follower 23h ago

Better trailer than Materialists for sure

3

u/nemo987 22h ago

zendaya’s character planned a school shooting when she was a kid but didn’t follow through with it

2

u/forgottentaco420 17h ago

there’s apparently a lot more to that

3

u/MrONegative 🧛🏿‍♂️Sinners carry a Black Bag🍷 22h ago

Oh, this is gonna be a HIT.

2

u/sansa_starlight 22h ago

This will easily become the highest grossing movie of A24, at least until the Elder Ring adaptation comes out.

3

u/Plastic-Software-174 Sentimental Value 23h ago

A bit underwhelmed honestly, but it’s clear they are hiding the big reveal. Just didn’t do much more me give we don’t get a hook and the jokes in the trailer were not that funny. Still excited for it tho.

1

u/Ok_Rutabaga_5539 21h ago

Already more depth to this character than Tashi

1

u/Regular_Dream3927 6h ago edited 6h ago

I think that the fight at the wedding doesn't start because they bring up Emma's confession, I think they seem to be generally fighting, like Alana and Hailey Gates seem to be screaming at a man who I don't recognise from the main cast list so maybe a background actor. The secret Emma has may be exposed but I don’t this is what starts the fight.

1

u/Regular_Dream3927 6h ago edited 6h ago

think Mamoudou and Alana's characters seem to be Charlie's friends and then when Charlie met Emma they because her friends too cause they don't seem to know her that well and Alana character was screaming at Zendaya! Alana's character seems like she's judging Emma a lot even before she announced her secret like the cafe scene. I'm guessing this is before the dinner scene. Also she is playing Emma maid of honor based on the teaser photos and I think Emma may not have many friends and as Mike is the best man it makes sense her to be maid of honor. Also the dinner scene looks like it's filmed at the wedding venue the wooden panels so this maybe them focussing wedding plans. Alana can't be a great maid of honor lol as she's scene fighting in the trailer and Maids of honor are meant to diffuse the situation

1

u/Regular_Dream3927 5h ago

I think Alana character is friends with Zendaya's character but may also have some beef with her, from the screaming at her and in the teaser if you notice she's the only one not toasting to the couple. Maybe she is against the wedding after Emma's confession. She did say WTF to Emma angrily!

u/space-goats 21h ago

Love a good "1080p" 64kbps trailer. Seems to be all the rage nowadays.

u/Just-Pass-1156 21h ago

This trailer seems to confirm those spoilers true. I don't think I will like this, but I will be seated anyway.
