The New Trailer for ‘Heretic’ Teases a Chilling Performance from Hugh Grant

The latest trailer for Heretic has been released online. Written and directed by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, the film stars Hugh Grant, Sophie Thatcher, Chloe East, and Topher Grace.

Here is the plot synopsis:

“Two young missionaries are forced to prove their faith when they knock on the wrong door and are greeted by a diabolical Mr. Reed (Hugh Grant), becoming ensnared in his deadly game of cat-and-mouse.”

Additionally, a new poster for the movie was revealed, which you can look at below:

Our editor-in-chief, Joey Magidson, had a chance to see the movie at the Toronto International Film Festival and praised Hugh Grant’s performance, stating “He’s playing against type and having such a good time, too. That sense of fun is imbued in the entire performance, which is dark and off-putting, but also completely hypnotic.” You can read his full review of the movie here.

You can check out the trailer below and see the film only in theatres on November 15:
