I watched the trailer at 2 a.m., the room small and loud with my phone’s glow. You feel it shift under your skin before the credits roll. I knew then the film would refuse to be forgotten.
The Crossed trailer
The trailer posted to Bloody-Disgusting opens on an abandoned stretch of highway and never gives you a moment to breathe. I watched every beat and felt the original comic’s cruelty and black humor folded into the film’s frame. The visuals are clinical, the sound design punishing, and the moral compass is deliberately broken.
Rob Jabbaz’s adaptation doesn’t soften Garth Ennis and Jacen Burrows’ nightmare; it translates it. The imagery is a switchblade wrapped in velvet. You’ll see moments that will make you recoil, and moments that will make you check your phone just to prove the world is still there.
When is the Crossed movie coming out?
There’s no wide-release date in the trailer package. Bloody-Disgusting has the first look, and the usual path for films like this is festival runs followed by limited theatrical or streaming windows—think a festival premiere this year then wider availability next year.
Is the Crossed movie faithful to the comic?
The tone is faithful in the same way a horror mirror can be faithful: distorted but honest. The trailer keeps the comic’s extremity and bleak humor while shaping scenes for cinema rhythm and performance. If you love the source, expect shock and careful adaptation choices.
Who’s in the Crossed cast?
The adaptation stars Devin Druid, Ash Santos, Ethan Jones Romero, Kyla Hee, Chido Nwokocha, Spenser Granese, Bob Morley, Ana Mulvoy Ten, Steven Hack, Lorenzo Ross, Owen Harn, Fedor Steer, Kelvin Adekunle, Angie Campbell, and Peter Falls. The ensemble leans young but experienced—this is not a gimmick, it’s an exercise in controlled chaos.
On a rehearsal floor a stunt guy grinned — The Mummy 4
Michael Johnston told Attitude he’s playing a “new character” in a film that promises to return to the first movie’s pulse: action first, spectacle second. Rick and Evie are back, the team says, and Johnston insisted the movie will honor the original’s feel with chase scenes and honest stunts.
Johnston is a heat-seeking arrow through the action: he described working with stunt teams and being surprised they’d let him try dangerous set pieces. If the production keeps that energy, fans who want the old formula will get it.
A writer’s desk where a director scribbled — Bad Toys
Variety reports Rooster Teeth’s Matt Hullum and Burnie Burns will direct Bad Toys, a Christmas-set horror-comedy inspired by medieval elf folklore. The premise asks what happens when an elf gives you your wish and punishes the wish-maker’s mistakes.
Rooster Teeth’s background in animation and viral-format storytelling makes them a natural fit for holiday misrule framed as dark comedy. Expect a tonal swing between festive warmth and sharp, sometimes gross, surprises.
A coffee-stained draft on a producer’s table — BioShock
Francis Lawrence told GamesRadar+ he’s still working on a BioShock script and feels close. He’s been persistent about making this adaptation for Netflix and says he’s “dying to” get it made.
Lawrence’s attachment lends the project weight—his track record on visual world-building is a clear authority cue. If the script is “pretty close,” Netflix may move fast, but Lawrence’s meticulous streak suggests they’ll finish when the tone matches the mythos of Rapture.
A pressroom murmur that grew louder — Untitled Alfonso Cuarón Project
At a press event reported by Dispatch (and picked up by Bloody-Disgusting), Alfonso Cuarón revealed he’s writing a horror screenplay. The director behind Gravity and Children of Men moving into horror is news on its own.
Cuarón’s name is a credibility magnet—his approach will be less jump-scare and more atmospheric, which could reshape expectations about auteur-driven horror.
A headline in Deadline with a simple title change — Savage Hunters
Deadline confirms DC’s animated Deathstroke and Bane team-up now carries the title Savage Hunters. The new name tightens the franchise’s intent.
The title signals a story steeped in pursuit and moral ambiguity; details are thin, but the branding says this will be a darker corner of the DC animated slate.
An actor awkwardly laughing on set — The Masque of the Red Death
Mikey Madison told Screen Rant her take on Edgar Allan Poe’s The Masque of the Red Death is “fun and crazy,” and she admits some of it still confounds her. She plays two characters in a tone that mixes slapstick and drama across a medieval backdrop.
This blend of tonal risk and period play could surprise critics and fans. Madison’s curiosity about the material is the best sign: when actors say they don’t fully understand a project, it often means the film will force audiences to think differently.
A trailer drop that felt like a punch — The Awakening
The trailer pitches a 500-year split between Spanish conquistadors and an elite military unit facing the same primeval force. The concept stitches historical horror to modern military dread.
That cross-century echo is a neat structural gambit; if the film balances those timelines it could become one of the year’s more ambitious genre experiments.
A second trailer playing at midnight — Christmas at the Kringles
We watched a follow-up trailer for Christmas at the Kringles, a holiday horror/comedy about a family addicted to seasonal excess. The tone leans comedic and grotesque in equal measure.
Holiday horror wins attention when it’s simultaneously cozy and unnerving; this one seems aimed at audiences who want their Christmas movies with a sharp edge.
A Netflix clip that stokes anticipation — Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2
Netflix released a sneak peek for Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2, slotted to premiere October 20. The animation and color palette continue to be the show’s strongest hook.
The first series proved the franchise can translate game aesthetics into emotional storytelling; this season looks prepared to expand that skillset.
Industry notes: Bloody-Disgusting hosted the Crossed trailer; GamesRadar+ and Screen Rant supplied director and cast interviews; Deadline and Variety reported title and director news. If you follow Netflix, Rooster Teeth, or Alfonso Cuarón’s channels, those platforms will likely be the first to break official release windows.
