“I never thought it was going to start again…” Netflix has revealed the first official trailer for an unsettling crime thriller titled The Whisper Man, arriving to watch starting in the end of August<\/a> this summer. The latest from director James Ashcroft, adapted from the bestselling novel<\/a> by Alex North about the mysterious case of a serial killer and a missing child. A grieving father and his young son relocate to the quiet town of Featherbank, which was terrorized by a killer known as “The Whisper Man” 15 years earlier, while rumors circulated that Whisper Man worked with an accomplice. When his 8-year-old son is abducted, a widowed crime writer looks to his estranged father, a retired former detective, for help, only to discover a connection with the decades-old case of a convicted serial killer. “Despite the genre and the trappings of a serial killer thriller, it was the characters and the father-son relationship that\u2019s mirrored throughout the story that really made me sink in.” The Whisper Man movie stars Robert De Niro, Michelle Monaghan, Adam Scott, Hamish Linklater, Owen Teague, Acston Luca Porto, and Will Brill, with Michael Keaton as “The Whisper Man”. This definitely looks creepy and mysterious \u2013 just hope it’s better than most Netflix thrillers.<\/p>\n
