The super rich, a remote island, mysterious memory loss… what could possibly go wrong/be going on?

This first trailer for Blink Twice, from Zoë Kravitz with her feature debut – co-written with E.T. Feigenbaum – feels like one of those clearly unraveling narratives that is set to play on the nature of the reality in some form and the teaser here from Amazon MGM Studios and Warner Bros is worth checking out.

In the film, tech billionaire Slater King (Channing Tatum) meets cocktail waitress Frida (Naomi Ackie) at his fundraising gala and it seems like she feels a connection. After being invited to join him and his friends on a dream vacation on his private island, things are initially great with wild nights and sun-soaked days, but after strange things begin to occur, Frida isn’t so sure about what is – and what isn’t – actually going on.

Firstly, I love that it’s Kravitz’s debut feature with such a fine cast – and it’s also great to see Tatum in this rather creepy setup, with a billionaire probably inspired by you know who. Ackie is always worth watching, and there’s a killer co-starring cast that includes Christian Slater, Simon Rex, Adria Arjona, Kyle MacLachlan, Haley Joel Osment, Geena Davis, and Alia Shawkat.

It hits cinemas on 21st August in the US, and 23rd August in the UK, and I wonder if a digital release will around a similar time – we shall see, watch the trailer now:

Blink Twice will be released in the UK by Warner Bros. Pictures on 23rd August
