First Trailer For “Send Help” From 20th Century Studios’ and Director Sam Raimi Debuts
A new trailer drops for 20th Century Studios’ Send Help, the upcoming darkly comedic psychological thriller from genre-bending visionary director Sam Raimi (“Spider-Man,” “The Evil Dead”), has been released.
The all-original film stars Oscar® and Tony Award® nominated actress Rachel McAdams (“Spotlight,” “Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret.,” “Mean Girls”), Dylan O’Brien (“Twinless,” “Saturday Night”), Edyll Ismail (“La Brea”), Dennis Haysbert (“Far from Heaven”), Xavier Samuel (“Elvis”), Chris Pang (“Crazy Rich Asians”), Thaneth Warakulnukroh (“Thai Cave Rescue”) and Emma Raimi (“Happy Pills”) and releases in cinemas nationwide on 30 January, 2026.
In the trailer, audiences get a first look at Linda Liddle (Rachel McAdams) and Bradley Preston (Dylan O’Brien), two colleagues who find themselves stranded on a deserted island after they are the only survivors of a plane crash. On the island, they must overcome past grievances and work together to survive, but ultimately, it is an unsettling and darkly humorous battle of wills and wits to make it out alive.
Director Sam Raimi says:
“I’ve always loved stories where interesting, dynamic characters are pushed to extremes. In our story, the power shifts create an escalating situation that’s brimming with unexpected turns and suspense.”
Send Help is produced by Raimi and Zainab Azizi (“65”), executive produced by JJ Hook (“The Amateur”) and written by Damian Shannon and Mark Swift (“Friday the 13th,” “Baywatch”), with original music by Danny Elfman (“The Nightmare Before Christmas,” “Batman”).
The darkly comedic psychological thriller releases in-cineamas nationwide 30 January 2026.
