Latest & Breaking News on Fox News

Netflix’s upcoming movie “Sacrifice” looks absolutely bonkers.

Basic info:

Streaming platform: Netflix
Plot: After the fiery death of their mother, Joan (Anya Taylor-Joy) and her siblings, driven by a mysterious volcanic prophecy, believe it is their duty to cleanse the Earth. Their radical group hijacks a glamorous charity gala and takes three unlikely hostages for a sacrificial ritual: their hero, movie star Mike Tyler (Chris Evans); their villain, pragmatically cold billionaire Ben Bracken (Vincent Cassel); and their lover, an unlucky performer named Katie (Ambika Mod). As the night descends into chaos, both an inward journey and an outward adventure ensue, where the line between performance and belief, salvation and sacrifice, begins to blur.
Cast: Anya Taylor-Joy, Charli XCX, Chris Evans, John Malkovich, Salma Hayek and Vincent Cassel.
Director: Romain Gavras
Release date: October 16, 2026

Netflix released the trailer for “Sacrifice” on Wednesday, and my interest was immediately grabbed because of the legit A-list cast.

It’s hard to say no to a movie featuring Anya Taylor-Joy, Chris Evans, John Malkovich, Salma Hayek and Vincent Cassel.

However, things went to a different level once I actually saw the preview. It’s absolutely absurd, and I mean that as a compliment.

At the very least, it seems like a refreshing and original idea that blends action, mystery, humor, suspense and (possibly?) the occult.

I have a feeling many of you will feel the same way. Give it a watch below, and let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.

As long as this movie is actually entertaining and not some kind of anti-Capitalism meltdown, then I think there’s serious potential.

The preview honestly rocks, and completes its only primary goal:

Bring interest and intrigue.

Now, we’ll have to wait to see if the film actually lives up to the expectations set by the first trailer.

You can catch “Sacrifice” on Netflix starting Oct. 16, and make sure to let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
