“What is it?” “It’s not a species we’re familiar with.” Neon has unveiled their official US trailer for the epic action sci-fi movie Hope from Korean filmmaker Na Hong-jin (also of The Chaser, The Yellow Sea, The Wailing) titled simply Hope. Out in US theaters this September. This premiered at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival where it caused a storm with completely polarizing reactions. Did it even belong at the festival? Is it an instant cult classic? Or not? Watch and find out (here is my mixed review) in theaters soon. A mysterious discovery is made on the outskirts of a remote harbor town when a monster suddenly attacks. The residents find themselves in a desperate fight for survival against something they’ve never encountered before – alien creatures that have crashed nearby. Hope stars Hwang Jung-min, Zo In-sung, and Jung Ho-yeon, with special appearances by Taylor Russell, Alicia Vikander, Michael Fassbender as aliens. Interestingly, this US trailer keeps the big alien creatures mostly hidden except for a few shots, whereas the recent official Korean trailer shows way more of them. Either way – these trailers are very good and show just how crazy fun and extra bonkers this movie is! Highly recommend watching mainly to have a total blast at the movies. // Continue Reading ›
