Zazie Beetz does not appear to be enjoying a restful hotel stay in the blood-soaked trailer for the forthcoming horror-comedy feature They Will Kill You.
Warner Bros. releases director Kirill Sokolov’s movie in theaters March 27. Myha’la, Paterson Joseph, Tom Felton, Heather Graham and Patricia Arquette round out the cast.
They Will Kill You centers on a newly hired housekeeper (Beetz) at a mysterious New York City hotel known as the Virgil. She soon learns that the building is the headquarters for a satanic cult, with the members having chosen to murder her as a sacrifice.
In the trailer, Beetz gets this chilling warning: “This building is a temple to Satan. Each month, we must pay with a human sacrifice. Tonight, you are the offering.”
Later, a character asks Beetz, “Where did you learn how to fight like that?” She responds by nonchalantly saying, “Prison.”
Sokolov helmed the film from a script he co-wrote with Alex Litvak. Hailing from New Line Cinema and Nocturna, They Will Kill You counts Andy Muschietti, Barbara Muschietti and Dan Kagan as producers. Litvak and Sokolov executive produce the project alongside Russell Ackerman, John Schoenfelder and Carl Hampe.
The Hollywood Reporter exclusively reported in August 2024 that Arquette and Felton had joined the movie’s cast.
Beetz can currently be seen opposite André Holland and Kate Mara in The Dutchman, which hit theaters over the weekend. She also has a role in Gore Verbinski’s feature Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die, set for theatrical release next month.
