Scarlett Johansson’s killer alien flick Under the Skin gets a release date!

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Looking forward to watching Scarlett Johansson strut her stuff as a man-eating alien? Yeah, who isn’t? Now we know when Jonathan Glazer’s strange film UNDER THE SKIN will be hitting cinemas here in North America: April 4th. The film’s release will be a limited one, but if enough people flock to the theater to watch Scarlett slay ’em with her sexiness, we suspect the film will receive an expanded run.

Isserley, an alien on earth, disguised as the perfect aesthetic form of a mesmerizing woman. She scours remote highways and desolate scenery looking to use her greatest weapon to snare human prey — her voracious sexuality. She is deadly efficient, but over time becomes drawn to and changed by the complexity of life on earth. With this new found humanity and weakening alien resolve, she finds herself on a collision course with her own kind.

If you missed the surreal trailer for the film, watch it below. Chase that with a mind-bogglingly stunning picture of the beauty. Your day is set.
