Trailer for horror-comedy Ick starring Brandon Routh

June 6, 2025 by Amie Cranswick

A poster and trailer have arrived online for Ick, the upcoming horror-comedy from director Joseph Kahn.

Brandon Routh stars as a failed football star-turned-science teacher in a small town that has been slowly taken over for almost two decades by a viscous vine-like growth known as The Ick. Joining Routh in the cast are Malina Weissman, Mena Suvari, Harrison Cone, and Jeff Fahey. Check out the trailer below…

For almost two decades, a viscous vine-like growth known colloquially as “The Ick” has benignly crept into every nook and cranny of American life while the residents of small town Eastbrook remain blasé about its existence. The exceptions are former high school football star-turned-hapless science teacher Hank (Routh) and his sardonically perceptive student Grace (Weissman) who are thrown together by Grace’s mom Staci’s (Suvari) closely-guarded secret and a mutual suspicion that the Ick is about to unleash some monstrous mayhem.

Ick is set to release on July 27th 2025.
