Ahead of his starring role in Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil , Weapons’ Austin Abrams can be seen having a very, very bad time get munched on by something far bigger than zombies in the new trailer for Whalefall, hitting theaters on October 16:<\/p>\n

Based on Daniel Kraus’ novel of the same name, Whalefall is directed by No One Will Save You’s Brian Duffield, with Josh Brolin starring alongside Abrams. Described as The Martian meets 127 Hours, Whalefall centers on a scuba diver in search of his deceased father’s remains:<\/p>\n

\n

The diver gets swallowed by an 80-foot, 60-ton sperm whale and has only one hour to escape before his oxygen runs out. After giving up on life, the young man is surprised to find a reason to live in the most dangerous and unlikely of places.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Imagine Entertainment’s Brian Grazer, Jeb Brody and Allan Mandelbaum are producing Whalefall, with Duffield also producing. 20th Century took Whalefall rights after a competitive bidding war back in 2024.<\/p>\n

Released in 2023, Kraus’ Whalefall received critical acclaim and was included in a list of the “Best Thrillers of 2023” by the New York Times. Kraus’ Angel Down, which won the Pulitzer for Fiction this year, also has a film adaptation in the works<\/a>from Imagine Entertainment.<\/p>\n

Check out a new poster for Whalefall below, and let’s just say thalassaphobes might want to brace themselves for this one.<\/p>\n
