Tim Story’s horror-comedy The Blackening gets a trailer and poster

March 2, 2023 by Amie Cranswick

Lionsgate has released a poster and trailer for director Tim Story’s (Ride Along) upcoming horror-comedy The Blackening.

The film centres on a group of Black friends on a weekend getaway who find themselves at the mercy of a twisted killer who forces them to play a sadistic game, ‘The Blackening’, which puts all of their lives at risk. Watch the trailer below…

The Blackening centers around a group of Black friends who reunite for a Juneteenth weekend getaway only to find themselves trapped in a remote cabin with a twisted killer. Forced to play by his rules, the friends soon realize this ain’t no motherf****** game.

Directed by Tim Story (Ride Along, Think Like A Man, Barbershop) and screenplay and screen story by Tracy Oliver (Girls Trip, Harlem) & Dewayne Perkins (The Amber Ruffin Show, Brooklyn Nine-Nine), The Blackening skewers genre tropes and poses the sardonic question: if the entire cast of a horror movie is Black, who dies first?

The film features a cast that includes Grace Byers, Jermaine Fowler, Melvin Gregg, X Mayo, Dewayne Perkins, Antoinette Robertson, Sinqua Walls, Jay Pharoah, and Yvonne Orji.

The Blackening arrives in cinemas on June 16th.
