With Piégé, director David Yarovesky, best known for his horror film Brightburn - L'enfant du mal, tackles the psychological thriller genre. Produced by Sam Raimi, the film reunites Bill Skarsgård (Ça, John Wick: Chapter 4) and Anthony Hopkins, film legend and unforgettable Hannibal Lecter in The Silence of the Lambs.
The screenplay, written by Michael Arlen Ross(The Hill Has Eyes 2), depicts an oppressive closed-door setting in which a simple robbery turns into a nightmare.
Piégé will be shown in cinemas from April 9, 2025.
Synopsis: A thief breaks into a luxury SUV. He soon realizes that he has fallen into a death trap set by a mysterious individual.
With its minimalist but hard-hitting concept, Trapped plays on the anguish of a closed-door setting and the psychological duel between a criminal and his victim, who becomes the executioner. Bill Skarsgård, accustomed to dark roles, plays a thief trapped in an ultra-connected car whose owner, played by Anthony Hopkins, orchestrates a relentless vengeance.
The film could appeal to fans of intense, oppressive thrillers in the vein of Phone Game or Buried, where the characters have to face up to a desperate situation. Anthony Hopkins' charisma and Bill Skarsgård's intensity could make for a memorable face-off, heightening the dramatic tension of the story.
The film benefits from Sam Raimi's expertise as producer, a guarantee of quality for fans of well-constructed suspense. With a director who has already proven his talent for dark atmospheres and a renowned cast, Trapped could be a captivating thriller for those who appreciate scenarios where the tension gradually builds to an unexpected finale.
With its intriguing concept, prestigious cast and meticulous direction by David Yarovesky, Piégé promises a breathless thriller where suspense is at the heart of the plot. Between claustrophobia, manipulation and revenge, this closed-door thriller is sure to captivate audiences looking for a film with constant tension.
