If you thought 2025 was chock-full<\/a> of movies, 2026 is going to be equally big. Coming early in the year is Warner Bros.\u2019\u00a0They Will Kill You,\u00a0whose debut trailer promises plenty of gore, scares, and laughs to go along with them.<\/p>\n

Directed by Kirill Sokolov<\/a> (Why Won\u2019t You Just Die!), who co-wrote it with Alex Litvak, the film stars Zazie Beetz as a housekeeper for the Virgil, one of New York\u2019s \u201cmost exclusive\u201d high-rise apartments. The reason for the exclusivity? It\u2019s home to a demonic cult that\u2019s been kidnapping people to use for monthly sacrifices. When she makes the connection between missing people and the Virgil\u2019s occupants\u2014and finds out that she\u2019s next on the list of sacrifices\u2014they decide to get rid of her. But she\u2019s more prepared than they think, and now she\u2019s gotta survive by fighting her way out of the twisty complex and put an end to what they\u2019re doing\u2026 possibly with the business end of her flaming axe.<\/p>\n

Also starring Myha\u2019la, Paterson Joseph, and Heather Graham,\u00a0They Will Kill\u00a0You\u00a0releases March 27 in theaters.<\/p>\n
