Ari Aster's 'Eddington' Gets an Official Trailer (2025)

It’s going to be a glorious day when Ari Aster returns to proper horror. For now, the Philippou Brothers are taking up the slack and doing a magnificent job exploring grief.

Aster, on the other hand, has been making a modern western called Eddington and while it still has that Aster human interaction with deep dialogue this looks more like a thriller than anything else.

Today an official trailer dropped for Eddington so you can see for yourself where Aster has been since Beau is Afraid. As a political western that takes place in the time of COVID, Eddington looks fantastic.

Whichever genre the director goes in, he’s still a great storyteller. We are going to check out this film no matter what. But let us know what you think about Aster’s shift to the fringe. Will you be seeing Eddington on July 18

About: “In May of 2020, a standoff between a small-town sheriff and mayor sparks a powder keg as neighbor is pitted against neighbor in Eddington, New Mexico.”

Eddington is written and directed by Ari Aster and stars Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal, Luke Grimes, Deirdre O’Connell, Micheal Ward, with Austin Butler and Emma Stone.
