By One of the most raved-about reveals at CinemaCon this year was the first footage from “Barbarian” breakout director Zach Cregger’s new film “Weapons” which opens in August.
Warner Bros. Pictures has started the marketing campaign for the movie and while there aren’t yet any official stills with cast, or any trailers for that matter, the studio has launched a website named MaybrookMissing.net disclosing some more information about the film’s story.
Written like a newspaper article, a description goes into the film’s central mystery in which seventeen children wake up and voluntarily walk out the front door of their homes at 2:17am one morning – inexplicably disappearing without a trace.
The site also includes a text link to another article headlined “Underground Prison Discovered in Rental Home” which goes into an article going into the events of 2022’s “Barbarian”.
This has led to plenty of speculation that the films are connected with “Weapons” set in the same universe as “Barbarian,” and could even potentially tie-in to that film somehow.
Josh Brolin, Julia Garner, Alden Ehrenreich and Benedict Wong star in “Weapons” which opens in cinemas on August 8th.
