‘The Dog Stars’ Trailer – Ridley Scott’s Post-Apocalyptic Thriller Arrives this August
The first trailer for Ridley Scott‘s (Alien) The Dog Stars debuted at CinemaCon…and it looks fantastic.
While technically not horror, the film appears to take place in a violent post-apocalyptic world featuring Mad Max-looking villains. Cannibals would be my guess.
Based on the novel by Peter Heller, the film takes place, “In a post-apocalyptic world after a virus wipes out humanity. Survivors face roaming scavengers called Reapers. Protagonist Hig, a pilot, survived the flu but lost his wife.”
Jacob Elordi (Frankenstein), Margaret Qualley (The Substance) and Josh Brolin (Planet Terror) star.
Mark L. Smith (Overlord) wrote the script.
The Dog Stars arrives in theaters August 28th via 20th Century Studios.
