Watch Escape from Spiderhead Trailer

Netflix has finally released the trailer for its forthcoming psychological thriller titled Spiderhead, which stars Chris Hemsworth. The film will be available for streaming starting on Friday, June 17.

Spiderhead is directed by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick) from a screenplay written by Deadpool scribes Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. It stars Hemsworth (Thor: Love and Thunder), Miles Teller (The Offer), Jurnee Smollett (Birds of Prey), Tess Haubrich (Alien: Covenant), BeBe Bettencourt (The Dry), and more.

In the near future, inmates are offered the opportunity to undergo medical experiments to shorten their sentences. One of the subjects, injected with a drug that generates feelings of love, begins to question his emotions.

“In a state-of-the-art penitentiary run by brilliant visionary Steve Abnesti (Chris Hemsworth), inmates wear a surgically attached device that administers dosages of mind-altering drugs in exchange for commuted sentences. There are no bars, no cells, or orange jumpsuits,” says the synopsis. “In Spiderhead, incarcerated volunteers are free to be themselves. Until they’re not. At times, they’re a better version. Need to lighten up? There’s a drug for that. At a loss for words? There’s a drug for that, too. But when two subjects, Jeff (Miles Teller) and Lizzy (Jurnee Smollett), form a connection, their path to redemption take a twistier turn, as Abnesti’s experiments start to push the limits of free will altogether.”
