‘The Devil’s Playground’ Promo Trailer

Published

on

After sharing a few images with you last week, we’ve now got our hands on a 3-minute promo trailer for Mark McQueen’s Devil’s Playground, which was recently acquired by Intandem Films.

Starring Danny Dyer (Severance, Adulthood, Straightheads, The Business, Football Factory, Doghouse), Craig Fairbrass (The Bank Job, Far Cry, White Noise 2), Jaime Murray (“Dexter”), Myanna Buring (The Descent, The Descent 2, Lesbian Vampire Killers, The Omen) and Colin Salmon (Punisher, Alien vs Predator, Resident Evil, Tomorrow Never Dies, Exam), the flick is a chilling horror film set in London in the not too distant future. A leading drug company’s new product has failed spectacularly causing severe illness in all 30,000 of its test subjects, with the exception of one user – a pregnant woman named Angela. As the drugs flow through their bloodstream the victims become infected, incredibly violent and unable to feel pain. One bite and you join them in the Living Dead. The company employs Cole, an ex-mercenary to hunt down Angela and find out why she is immune. As Cole stalks through the London streets and battles the fast-moving, diseased hordes, he finally finds Angela with a group of survivors and discovers that their only hope of getting out alive is to fight their way to the last remaining helicopter out.

In addition to Leigh Whannell’s upcoming Universal Monsters movie Wolf Man, Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel) has also joined the cast of Weapons, THR has announced tonight.

Weapons is the new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), with Julia Garner joining the previously announced Josh Brolin (Dune 2).

The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.

The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”

Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”

Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
