Last Night in Soho trailer, poster tease Edgar Wright’s latest!

Director Edgar Wright's horror film Last Night in Soho is arriving a year later than intended due to the pandemic, but it's on track for an October 22, 2021 theatrical release, and the first trailer has finally arrived online. Check it out in the embed above!

Inspired by the likes of Don't Look Now and Repulsion, Wright wrote Last Night in Soho with Krysty Wilson-Cairns. The film stars Thomasin McKenzie and Anya Taylor-Joy as characters named Eloise and Sandy. 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 Sandy, gets to experience.

Another plot synopsis says the lead character is 

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…

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.

Wright had said that he was moving away from the comedy of his previous films to make this one a "straight-up psychological horror thriller", and that definitely comes through in the trailer. I'm looking forward to seeing the full movie later this year.
