The world was fire and blood for Nicholas Hoult this summer with Mad Max: Fury Road, but this fall he will be consumed by music and blood. Based on John Niven’s best-selling novel, Kill Your Friends is described as a “jet-black comedy about a music executive at the height of the Britpop era who will stop at nothing to further his career,” including murder, if the first teaser is to be believed.
Coming from director Owen Harris, who delivered one of the best Black Mirror episodes (Be Right Back featuring Hayley Atwell and Domhnall Gleeson, the first (briefly NSFW) teaser shows off a fairly fun, promising dark comedy. Although there’s no U.S. release date yet, it’ll arrive in the U.K. this November. Also starring James Corden, Georgia King, Craig Roberts, Tom Riley, Joseph Mawle, Edward Hogg, Ed Skrein, Moritz Bleibtreu, and Rosanna Arquette, check out the trailer and a pair of posters below ahead of its TIFF premiere.
Kill Your Friends will premiere at TIFF and hits U.K. theaters on November 6th.
