Hasn’t been long since we’ve heard from RETREAT, the psychological thriller from director Carl Tibbets. We recently got the new that it has just been snatched up by Sony -that was earlier today. Wouldn’t you know it, hot on the heels of that announcement, we’ve found ourselves a promo trailer for the film, which has an impressive cast consisting of Cillian Murphy, Thandie Newton and Jamie Bell. Check it out below.

RETREAT finds Murphy and Newton heading to a remote island cottage to rebuild their frail marriage. When a wounded and armed stranger (Bell) shows up at their door with news about a deadly airborne virus, they must seal themselves inside the cottage, where the tension starts to escalate from psychological to physical.

No release date known as of yet, but expect to hear more on that front after Cannes…
