Anya Taylor-Joy is teaming up with Miles Teller to take on…aliens? A serial killer? Who knows when it comes to the elusive “The Gorge,” the latest thriller from “The Black Phone” and “Sinister” director Scott Derrickson.
The Apple Original Film from Skydance Media centers on two elite snipers, played by Taylor-Joy and Teller, who are stationed in watchtowers on opposite sides of a highly-classified gorge. Taylor-Joy’s character is Russian, while Teller’s is American. Together, the duo must overcome international politics to safeguard the outside world from an undisclosed, mysterious evil that lurks within the titular gorge.
The official synopsis reads: “They bond from a distance in a faraway land while trying to stay vigilant in defending against an unseen enemy. When the cataclysmic threat to humanity is revealed to them, they must work together in a test of both their physical and mental strength to keep the secret in the gorge before it’s too late.”
One of those trailers where they show almost everything.
Yeah, I reckon I can skip the first ¾ of the film, find out the “mystery” and watch the end. Saved me a lot of time.
