The last few years have seen a bevy of satires about how rich people suck. After Parasite won Best Picture, we got The Menu<\/a>, Triangle Of Sadness, Glass Onion, Saltburn, and Death Of A Unicorn<\/a>, not to mention the Successions<\/a> and White Lotuses and Squid Games on TV. The trend will continue at least until February with the release of How To Make A Killing, starring Glen Powell and Margaret Qualley.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The first trailer for How To Make A Killing, released this morning, does offer a bit of a different premise than those other entries into the genre. Powell plays Becket Redfellow, who sets out to kill various wealthy members of his extended family, not in some kind of revolutionary way, but to come into a $28 billion inheritance. Jessica Henwick, Bill Camp, Zach Woods, and Topher Grace also star.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\ufeffHow To Make A Killing comes from director John Patton Ford, who most recently helmed Emily The Criminal starring Aubrey Plaza. His new project has had a bit of a twisty path to the screen. Loosely based on the 1949 British film Kind Hearts And Coronets, Ford\u2019s screenplay appeared on the Blacklist (then titled Rothschild) in 2014, and as of 2019, director Jon S. Baird was going to direct it with Shia LaBeouf and Mel Gibson attached to star. It\u2019s not exactly clear why that didn\u2019t work out but by 2023, the film was renamed Huntington, Powell was attached, and Ford would direct. How To Make A Killing only publicly received that new title last week, per Deadline<\/a>.\u00a0How To Make A Killing hits theaters on February 20, 2026.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
