Amazon Studios has revealed the first trailer for the upcoming Sci-Fi drama (based on a novel of the same name), FOE.
Having not read the book this is based on, I can’t say exactly what’s going on here…but I do know it’s definitely piqued my interest. Particuarly I’m digging the low-key approach to the science fiction elements, which promises a more thoughtful approach to the drama that unfolds.
Academy Award nominees Saoirse Ronan and Paul Mescal star in Foe, a haunting exploration of marriage and identity set in an uncertain world. Hen and Junior farm a secluded piece of land that has been in Junior’s family for generations, but their quiet life is thrown into turmoil when an uninvited stranger (Aaron Pierre) shows up at their door with a startling proposal. Based on best-selling author Iain Reid’s novel, directed by Garth Davis, and co-written by Davis and Reid, Foe’s mesmerizing imagery and persistent questions about the nature of humanity (and artificial humanity) bring the not-too-distant future to luminous life.
Amazon Studios is launching FOE in theaters on October 6, 2023.
