Fans of Nicolas Cage in his most feral, unhinged form remain in for a treat as we’ve got a trailer for this summer season’s thriller Sympathy for the Devil to share. The Oscar-winning Cage can be found in lots of types, from the rather downplayed Pig to the definitely bananas Prisoners of Ghostland – which’s simply reviewing the last couple of years. Here however, we are getting what seems off-the-leash, wild Cage at his most feral, starring along with one Mr. Joel Kinnaman, of The Suicide Squad popularity. It’s a hesitant trip for Kinnaman, what does that appear like when Cage is the killer? Let’s take a look.
The trailer begins with some definitely unhinged voiceover from Cage as we see Kinnaman’s character revealing that he will quickly be a daddy. Unfortunately, what ought to be a happy celebration for him is tossed into a state of turmoil when Cage forces this apparently gladly family man to drive him around for the night. It looks sort of like Michael Mann’s Collateral infiltrated a bonkers Face/Off filter. It’s clear the movie is attempting to conceal some tricks, so the trailer is more appealing instead of laying all of it out there. The authorities (and undoubtedly quick) summary checks out as follows:
“After being forced to drive a mysterious passenger at gunpoint, a man finds himself in a high-stakes game of cat and mouse where it becomes clear that not everything is as it seems.”
Yuval Adler (The Operative, The Secrets We Keep) remains in the director’s chair for this one, working from a script by beginner Luke Paradise. The movie was gotten for circulation by RLJE Films back in March. They’ve worked together with Cage a number of times in recent years, most especially on director Panos Cosmatos’ Mandywhich functioned as among the star’s most outstanding efforts because his recent renaissance.
Meanwhile, Cage has actually been enjoying his renewal, starring in more prominent movies instead of direct-to-video schlock, which he was stuck providing for far too long. Most just recently, he looked like Dracula in Renfield. Some of his other recent credits consist of Willy’s Wonderland and The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talentwhere he played an increased variation of himself.
Sympathy for the Devil is set to strike theaters on July 28. Check out our Summer Horror Watchlist for more motion pictures that ought to be on your radar.
