Imagine if there was a spin-off to The Last of Us that starred Liam Neeson as a retired bioterror operative who teams up with a couple of young kids to stop a zombie outbreak. Imagine even further if that spin-off was a horror comedy thriller filled with over-the-top gore, and you have yourself Cold Storage, the new flick by director Jonny Campbell that was written by the same person who’s penned such hits as Jurassic Park, Mission: Impossible, and Spider-Man.
Thankfully, you don’t have to imagine it any longer, as the first trailer for Cold Storage just dropped (seen below), and if it’s any indication of what the actual movie will be like, we’re in for a real treat when it hits theaters next year. Seriously, this movie has everything from exploding heads and a military cover-up, to elevator-riding deer and infected felines. What’s not to love?
Written by David Koepp and based on his 2019 novel of the same name, Cold Storage also stars Georgina Campbell (The Watchers, Bird Box Barcelona) and Stranger Things‘ Joe Keery as Naomi and Teacake, two young adults who work the night shift at a self‑storage facility built atop an old U.S. military base. When rising temperatures cause a parasitic fungus to mutate and spread, it’s up to them and Neeson to prevent the outbreak from reaching the outside world. Also along for the ride are the incomparable Vanessa Redgrave, Lesley Manville, Sosie Bacon, and Darrell D’Silva, to name a few.
