On Thursday, the makers of the science fiction film The Assessment released a trailer for it. Written by Dave Thomas, Nell Garfath-Cox, and John Donnelly, The Assessment is Fleur Fortune's directorial debut.

The official synopsis of the film is as follows: "In a not-so-distant future, where resources are scarce and tightly controlled, even the dream of having a child is not a given. Mia (Elizabeth Olsen) and Aaryan (Himesh Patel) are one of the few couples allowed to take a mysterious assessment for the right to have a child, having successfully navigated a brutal selection process. Desperate to prove themselves eligible, they face their evaluator, Virginia (Alicia Vikander) —cold, unpredictable, and impossible to read. Subjected to seven gruelling days of challenges, Mia and Aaryan are pushed to the brink. The trials unravel into a psychological nightmare, forcing them to face their deepest insecurities, shaking the foundations of their relationship and what being parents really means to them."

The Assessment stars Elizabeth Olsen, Alicia Vikander, Himesh Patel, Minnie Driver, Indira Varma, Charlotte Ritchie, Nicholas Pinnock, Leah Harvey, Anaya Thorley, Benny O Arthur, and Malaya Stern Takeda.

Produced by Number 9 Films, The Assessment premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 8, 2024. It is set to be released theatrically in the US on March 21, 2025.
