Trailer released for Blumhouse’s The Hunt, starring Gilpin and Swank

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Blumhouse and Universal chose not to give too much away about their upcoming film THE HUNT with the poster, which just looks like an orange sign, or the faux commercial of a teaser trailer (which we saw just two weeks ago.) With the release of the full trailer for the film, they have shifted gears in a major way. If you still don't want to know much about THE HUNT you might want to avoid the trailer embedded below, because it appears to give away a lot of the movie.

Directed by Z FOR ZACHARIAH's Craig Zobel from a screenplay by Lost co-creator Damon Lindelof and his The Leftovers staff writer Nick Cuse, THE HUNT has the following synopsis: 

Twelve strangers wake up in a clearing. They don’t know where they are, or how they got there. They don't know they've been chosen… for a very specific purpose… The Hunt.
 
In the shadow of a dark internet conspiracy theory, a group of globalist elites gathers for the very first time at a remote Manor House to hunt humans for sport. But the elites’ master plan is about to be derailed because one of the hunted, Crystal (Betty Gilpin, GLOW), knows The Hunters’ game better than they do. She turns the tables on the killers, picking them off, one by one, as she makes her way toward the mysterious woman (two-time Oscar winner Hilary Swank) at the center of it all.

Gilpin and Swank's co-stars include Ike Barinholtz and Emma Roberts.

The film was produced by Lindelof and Jason Blum, with Zobel and Cuse executive producing with Steven R. Molen.

If you don't mind the SPOILERS, the trailer does make THE HUNT look like it's going to be an entertaining thriller. I don't know if I'm going to be rushing out to see it when it reaches theatres on September 27th, but this is definitely something I'll be watching at some point.
