Last week, the final trailer for Edgar Wright’s new film Last Night in Soho was released online, and you can check it out in the embed above. Now a new poster for the film has been unveiled, and this is being referred to as the “final poster”. Which makes sense, given that the theatrical release of Last Night in Soho is so close. (The film is set to reach the big screen on October 25th.) This new and final poster can be seen below.
Wright described Last Night in Soho as a “straight-up psychological horror thriller”, inspired by the likes of Don’t Look Now and Repulsion. Scripted by Wright and Krysty Wilson-Cairns, the film stars Thomasin McKenzie and Anya Taylor-Joy as characters named Eloise and Sandie. The film centers on
a young girl, passionate in fashion design, who is mysteriously able to enter the 1960s where she encounters her idol, a dazzling wannabe singer. But 1960s London is not what it appears, and time seems to fall apart with shady consequences…

Much of the story takes place in
the London of the Swinging Sixties; a time period with which Eloise is obsessed and, through a mysterious connection with Sandie, gets to experience.
McKenzie and Taylor-Joy are joined in the cast by Matt Smith, Michael Ajao, Synnøve Karlsen, Diana Rigg, Terence Stamp, Rita Tushingham, and Margaret Nolan. Sadly, both Rigg and Nolan passed away in 2020, so this marks the last film appearances for both of them.
Wright also produced the film with Nira Park and Working Title’s Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner.
