Remember ‘Antlers’? It’s Still Coming This Halloween and We’ve Got Some New Images!
Director Scott Cooper‘s Antlers, produced by Guillermo del Toro, had been set for release in April 2020 via Disney’s Searchlight, but that date was of course bumped back indefinitely due to the ongoing pandemic. A new date of February 2021 was subsequently announced but then also ditched, with the most recent announcement shifting the date to October 29, 2021.
As far as we’ve heard, Antlers is still set for release on October 29, but the lack of marketing sure seems to suggest otherwise. Then again, movie marketing has all around become quite different in the midst of the industry-changing pandemic, with studios pushing their movies hard just before they’re unleashed, rather than thinking long term with their marketing plans.
In any event, we’ve got some new images from Antlers for you today, which remind that yes, Antlers is still a movie, and yes, it will finally be releasing soon. If nothing changes, that is…
In Antlers, a small-town Oregon teacher (Keri Russell) and her brother (Jesse Plemons), the local sheriff, become entwined with a young student (Jeremy T. Thomas) harboring a dangerous secret with frightening consequences.
Based on the short story “The Quiet Boy” by Nick Antosca (“Channel Zero”), Antlers is written by Henry Chaisson and Antosca, with revisions by Cooper.

A creature wreaks havoc upon a community in Hope, from writer-director Na Hong-jin (The Wailing), and the new poster gives a closer look at the snarling beast.
The Korean monster movie will be released in theaters in the United States by NEON on September 9.
Check out the new poster below.
Set in the remote South Korean village of Hope Harbor, police chief Bum-seok and officer Sung-ae are called to find a mysterious creature that has wreaked havoc on the village.
In the nearby forest, a coterie of hunters, including Sung- ki, set out to track the beast and find themselves hunted instead. But all is not as it seems, and perceptions can be misleading.
What begins as ignorance plants the seed of disaster, escalating through human conflict into a tragedy of cosmic proportions.
Hwang Jung-min (The Wailing), Zo In-sung (“Moving”), Hoyeon (“Squid Game”), Taylor Russell (Bones and All), Cameron Britton (“The Umbrella Academy”), Alicia Vikander (Ex Machina), and Michael Fassbender (Prometheus) star in Hope.
Hope had its World Premiere at the Cannes Film Festival back in May. The festival’s director, Thierry Fremaux, previously teased that Hope “constantly changes genres” to capture a story of “no part of history that’s ever been told before.”
