Neon’s second trailer for Cuckoo is, well, cuckoo. As YouTube commenters point out, Dan Stevens is excellent at playing twisted characters. And trailer #2 confirms everything about Cuckoo – including Stevens’ character – is twisted.
“Reluctantly, 17-year-old Gretchen leaves her American home to live with her father, who has just moved into a resort in the German Alps with his new family. Arriving at their future residence, they are greeted by Mr. König, her father’s boss, who takes an inexplicable interest in Gretchen’s mute half-sister Alma,” reads Neon’s synopsis. “Something doesn’t seem right in this tranquil vacation paradise. Gretchen is plagued by strange noises and bloody visions until she discovers a shocking secret that also concerns her own family.”
In addition to Dan Stevens, director Tilman Singer’s latest horror film stars Hunter Schafer (Euphoria), Jessica Henwick (The Royal Hotel), Greta Fernandez (La Hija de un Ladron), Marton Csokas (Chevalier), and Jan Bluthardt.
Cuckoo currently sits at 81% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes after a festival run that included the 74th Berlin International Film Festival, SXSW, and the Overlook Film Festival. Neon’s set an August 9, 2024 theatrical release date.
