Netflix have released the first official still and release date for their forthcoming Chris Hemsworth thriller Spiderhead.
Based on “Escape from Spiderhead” by George Saunders, a short story from The New Yorker, the Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick) directed film follows a brilliant visionary (Hemsworth’s Steve Abnesti) who runs a state-of-the-art penitentiary who experiments on his inmates with mind-altering drugs. When two of his subjects form a connection, their path towards redemption and free will takes a twisted route that pushes Abnesti’s abilities to the limit.
Written by Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick (Deadpool, Zombieland) and co-starring Miles Teller and Jurnee Smollett, Spiderhead is a genre-bending and darkly funny psychological thriller set to begin streaming on Netflix from June 17th, 2022.
