After playing Pennywise and before playing Nosferatu and Eric Draven, Bill Skarsgård takes on the role of a deaf-mute action hero in Boy Kills World, a one-of-a-kind action spectacle set in a dystopian fever dream reality. The film comes from producers Sam Raimi and Roy Lee, and Bloody Disgusting has got the Red Band trailer you’ve been waiting for.
The Boy Kills World Red Band trailer plays up the humor, manic energy and “kill fest” violence of the film, with one particular pull quote from Daily Beast referring to the bloody experience as “R-rated Looney Tunes on acid.” The film is indeed rated “R” for “Strong bloody violence and gore throughout, language, some drug use and sexual references.”
Lionsgate and Roadside Attractions will release Boy Kills World into theaters on April 26, 2024. Whet your appetite for violent mayhem with the official Red Band trailer below!
Moritz Mohr directed Boy Kills World, which was written by Arend Remmers (Sløborn) and Tyler Burton Smith (Kung Fury: The Movie).
In Boy Kills World, “Boy (Bill Skarsgård) is a deaf-mute with a vibrant imagination. When his family is murdered, Boy escapes to the jungle and is trained by a mysterious shaman to repress his childish imagination and become an instrument of death.”
Raimi previews, “Mohr brings a distinct visual style and an unbridled imagination to the screen, creating an original, outrageous, and visceral thrill ride. Boy Kills World‘s eclectic cast, eye-popping stunt sequences, and deranged sense of humor will blow audiences away.”
The cast also includes Happy Death Day star Jessica Rothe, Yayan Ruhian (John Wick 3, The Raid: Redemption), Andrew Koji (Warrior, Snake Eyes), Isaiah Mustafa (It: Chapter Two), Famke Janssen (The Postcard Killings), Sharlto Copley (District 9), Michelle Dockery (“Downton Abbey”), Brett Gelman (Stranger Things), Quinn Copeland (Peacock’s Punky Brewster), and twins Cameron and Nicholas Crovetti (Big Little Lies).
