First trailer for Hereditary director Ari Aster’s new horror Midsommar

March 5, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

Following on from the recent teaser and poster, A24 has now debuted the first trailer for Hereditary director Ari Aster’s hotly-anticipated new film, the ‘Scandavian folk horror’ Midsommar, which stars Florence Pugh (Fighting With My Family), Jack Reynor (On the Basis of Sex), Will Poulter (Black Mirror: Bandersnatch) and William Jackson Harper (The Good Place); watch it here…

Midsommar sees Florence Pugh (Fighting with my Family), Jack Reynor (On the Basis of Sex) as a couple who travel to Sweden to visit their friend’s rural hometown for its fabled mid-summer festival. And, what begins as an idyllic retreat, quickly devolves into an increasingly violent and bizarre competition at the hands of a pagan cult.

Midsommar is set for release on August 9th.

Originally published March 5, 2019. Updated May 14, 2019.
