If you\u2019ve got a thing for sea monsters and moody Scandinavian horror, then get ready for the upcoming Norwegian creature feature Kraken. <\/p>\n
The teaser trailer just dropped and it’s giving us a first look at a truly terrifying deep-sea nightmare. Directed by P\u00e5l \u00d8ie, best known for his disaster thriller The Tunnel, Kraken dives headfirst into the abyss with a blend of environmental horror and folklore, unearthing a mountain-sized myth that\u2019s been hiding in one of Norway\u2019s deepest fjords.<\/p>\n
The story follows marine biologist Johanne, played by Sara Khorami, who\u2019s stationed at a fish farm in the quiet community of Vangsnes. What starts as routine research quickly turns into a waking nightmare. <\/p>\n
In the film: \u201cJohanne is a marine biologist who is doing research on a fish farm in Vangsnes, a rural community located by the fjord, when she encounters several strange occurrences. <\/p>\n
\u201cAlong with the brutal deaths of two local teenagers, all signs are pointing to the deep fjord; might there be more to the depths than the eye can see? At the bottom of Norway’s deepest fjord rests a mythical monster as large as a mountain, with a myriad of arms ready to crush and devour anything they can grab.\u201d <\/p>\n
This ancient leviathan is a threat to humans and a brutal force of nature set on punishing those who\u2019ve tampered with the ecosystem.<\/p>\n
Joining Khorami in the cast are Mikkel Bratt Silset, Ingvild Holthe Bygdnes, \u00d8yvind Brandtz\u00e6g, Jenny Evensen, and Steinar Klouman Hallert. <\/p>\n
The film is co-directed by cinematographer Sjur Aarthun, making his feature debut, and features a screenplay by Natasha Arthur, Vilde Eide, and Kjersti Helen Rasmussen. Kraken opens in Norway on October 24, 2025, and is expected to hit the US sometime this winter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you\u2019ve got a thing for sea monsters and moody Scandinavian horror, then get ready for the upcoming…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":31231,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[146,85,46,397],"class_list":["post-31230","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-entertainment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-movies"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31230","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31230"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31230\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31231"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31230"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31230"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31230"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
