As a die-hard fan of horror and suspense films, I can hardly contain my excitement for “The Gorge”, set to release next Valentine’s Day on Apple TV+. With Scott Derrickson at the helm (the man behind the chilling masterpiece that is 2012’s Sinister), this film promises a unique blend of romance and terror that I simply can’t resist.
As December unfolds, it’s high time to catch a glimpse at the movie lineup for 2025, and we’ve been offered an early sneak peek at an enthralling thriller set to stream on Apple TV+ this Valentine’s Day. The first trailer for Scott Derrickson’s The Gorge has arrived, and although it’s a Valentine’s release, I must say that the film starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Miles Teller, which revolves around the gates of hell, looks incredibly romantic. With this tantalizing preview, I am already hooked!
In the unveiling at Brazil Comic-Con, both Anya Taylor-Joy and Miles Teller revealed a new trailer. Taylor-Joy, our contemporary queen of horror, adopts black hair and an accent to portray Drasa, a skilled operative stationed at a foreboding guard tower that seems to safeguard either a gorge or the gates of Hell. Simultaneously, Teller, who joined the project in 2022, plays Levi, who is positioned on the opposite side of the gorge and serves as a watchman as well. Fans can also look forward to seeing Sigourney Weaver in the trailer, as she returns to her beloved genre role as the official who recruits Levi for his mission.
It’s clear that Levi has been assigned to stay in a location for a full year, cut off from any contact with the outside world. He’s also not allowed to communicate with Drasa, who is on the opposite side, as his role involves ensuring nothing escapes from the chasm, known as the “gateway to hell.” However, as time wears on for these isolated agents, they gradually begin to connect and form a bond with each other.
One scene from the trailer sees the characters communicating using signs with messages on them, and it actually reminds me of one of Taylor Swift’s best music videos, “You Belong With Me”! However, when Teller’s character tries to zipline to the other side, perhaps to finally rendezvous with Taylor-Joy’s character, he falls directly into the gorge, and she goes after him. Based on this footage, it seems fans are in for a creepy, horror-filled thriller with a lot of romantic tension, and I’m so eager to see how it all plays out.
I’m really looking forward to this upcoming film, which was penned by Zach Dean of “The Tomorrow War.” However, what has me particularly excited is that it’s being directed by Scott Derrickson. Known for movies such as “The Black Phone,” “Doctor Strange,” and the highly acclaimed horror movie “Sinister” from 2012, Derrickson brings a fresh approach to horror with his distinct style. I’m eager to see how he will blend the film’s romantic elements with his passion for creating chilling scares and suspense.
Recently, Miles Teller and Anya Taylor-Joy have been quite occupied with various projects, making it thrilling to witness them share the screen in an upcoming film. Notably, Taylor-Joy has just completed a successful year marked by her leading role in the critically praised movie “Furiosa”. Moving forward, Teller is set to star in the Michael Jackson biopic where he will portray lawyer John Branca.
Beforehand, I can’t help but express my anticipation for what the two actors will contribute to “The Gorge” following the release of the first trailer. If you share this excitement, consider signing up for an Apple TV+ membership to catch it when it premieres on February 14.
