Weapons Trailer Unveils Horror Epic About Child Disappearances

Zach Cregger, director of the acclaimed horror film 'Barbarian', returns with 'Weapons', a highly anticipated and secretive new horror movie set to release in August 2025. The film centers on a chilling event in which all but one child from an elementary school class mysteriously vanish at precisely 2:17 am, leaving their community in turmoil and authorities baffled. Julia Garner stars as the teacher who discovers her empty classroom, while the cast also features Josh Brolin, Benedict Wong, and Alden Ehrenreich. The film's unsettling trailer highlights disturbing visuals and raises questions about responsibility and blame within the town. Cregger has revealed that 'Weapons' is an intensely personal project inspired by his own experiences of grief, aiming for a bold, epic scale reminiscent of 'Magnolia'. Early reactions suggest it may be one of the most exciting and unnerving horror films of the coming year.
