We first heard about this one back in 2022 when Tessa Thompson (Thor: Love and Thunder) and Joseph Gordon Levitt (Inception) were both attached to star, but the project has since gained two new leads, and the first teaser trailer the sophomore feature of Grammy-winning musician and filmmaker Flying Lotus, aka Steven Ellison, is now online.
Eiza Gonzalez (Baby Driver) stars as a woman who wakes up on a distant planet to find the rest of the crew of her space station viciously murdered. She has to decide whether to trust the man (Breaking Bad's and Westworld's Aaron Paul) sent to rescue her.
During their investigation into the killings, however, he begins to wonder if she is as innocent as she pretends to be.
"The way his brain works is quite special," Gonzalez says of her director during a recent an interview with EW. "He reminds me a lot of David Fincher, who also started in music videos, as someone who is quite interested in pushing boundaries and not being scared of diving into something. But this movie also required someone who had a really authentic and unique artistic take. We couldn't have been more lucky, because his visual imagery and the way that he spoke to us about the movie really translated to the making of the film. It's a movie that causes the audience to stay engaged consistently. I love movies that require you to keep thinking and trying to figure out what is actually happening."
Check out the trailer below, along with some previously-released promo stills.
"On the mysterious planet of Ash, Riya (Eiza González) awakens to find her crew slaughtered. When a man named Brion (Aaron Paul) arrives to rescue her, an ordeal of psychological and physical terror ensues while Riya and Brion must decide if they can trust one another to survive."
Based on an original screenplay by Jonni Remmler, Ash also stars Iko Uwais (The Raid), Beulah Koale (Hawaii Five-0), and Kate Elliott (Wentworth). District 9 director Neill Blomkamp is on board as an executive producer.
