The first trailer for Nightmare Alley has arrived, giving us a sneak peek at Guillermo Del Toro’s next carnival of oddities. The teaser may not give much away in terms of plot, but its darkly fantastical visual style definitely affirms that this is a Del Toro film.
Based on the book of the same name, Nightmare Alley follows manipulative carnival worker Stan (Bradley Cooper) who connects with dangerous psychiatrist Dr. Lilith Ritter (Cate Blanchett). The psychological thriller’s star-studded cast also includes Toni Collette, Willem Dafoe, Richard Jenkins, Rooney Mara, and Ron Perlman.
Nightmare Alley is scheduled for release Dec. 17.
