A Floridian screwup finds his purpose in life when he rescues a mermaid creature from an aquarium in the new trailer for Mermaid.
Mermaid swims into select theaters on April 8, 2026, via Utopia.
In the quirky horror comedy, “A drug addicted Florida man finds a wounded mermaid at his lowest point. When word spreads about his secret, he’ll stop at nothing to protect her.”
Watch the new trailer and check out images and poster below, all of which tease wacky Floridian horror-comedy antics and glimpses of the aquatic monster. Love is, comically, somehow in the air.
Johnny Pemberton, Avery Potemri, Kevin Nealon, Kirk Fox, Julia Larson, Devyn McDowell, Tom Arnold, with Robert Patrick and Kevin Dunn star.
The film hails from writer/director Tyler Cornack, the visionary behind Butt Boy.
“At Utopia, we love a wild movie, especially one that is funny as hell, so we jumped at the opportunity to release Mermaid,” said Utopia‘s SVP Acquisitions & Business Development, Charlie Sextro. “Tyler Cornack’s new twisted fantasy will provide audiences with one hell of a night out at the movies.”
Daniel Brandt, Dane Eckerle, and Cole Eckerle produced under their production banner, Bad Grey, with Bill Morean exec producing alongside Sara McFarlane, Jason Korsrad, and Pemberton.
