First trippy teaser for ‘The Killing of a Sacred Deer’ with Colin Farrell and Nicole Kidman
The first trailer for The Killing Of A Sacred Deer, Yorgos Lanthimos’ follow-up to his Oscar-nominated film The Lobster is here and it’s creepy and trippy, but would you expect anything less?
As one of the film’s stars, Raffey Cassidy, sings Ellie Goulding’s “Burn,” we see bits and pieces of surgeon Colin Farrell and his wife, playing by Nicole Kidman, finding more and more sinister goings on happening after they adopt a teenager.
The film won the Screenplay prize at the Cannes Film Festival this year (tying with Lynne Ramsey’s You Were Never Really There) and will also show at the Toronto International Film Festival next month.
A24 will release The Killing of a Sacred Deer on November 3rd. Here is the teaser.
Erik Anderson is the founder/owner and Editor-in-Chief of AwardsWatch and has always loved all things Oscar, having watched the Academy Awards since he was in single digits; making lists, rankings and predictions throughout the show. This led him down the path to obsessing about awards. Much later, he found himself in film school and the film forums of GoldDerby, and then migrated over to the former Oscarwatch (now AwardsDaily), before breaking off to create AwardsWatch in 2013.
He is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic, accredited by the Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and more, is a member of the International Cinephile Society (ICS), The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (GALECA), Critics Choice Association (CCA), San Francisco Bay Area Film Critics Circle (SFBAFCC) and the International Press Academy. Among his many achieved goals with AwardsWatch, he has given a platform to underrepresented writers and critics and supplied them with access to film festivals and the industry and calls the Bay Area his home where he lives with his husband and son.
