Netflix has released the trailer for its upcoming survival thriller, Apex. Starring Charlize Theron in the lead, the film is set to premiere on April 24.
Theron stars as Sasha in the film, whose trip to the Australian wilderness is hindered by a serial killer (Taron Egerton), who starts to pursue her in a twisted game of cat and mouse. Apex is directed by Baltasar Kormakur who has previously directed Everest (2015) and Beast (2022).
The cast of the film also includes Eric Bana.
Speaking about the film, director Kormakur said, "For a film like Apex — where the elements and the terrain are characters that loom just as large as the movie stars battling in it — no other country in the world could have taken the place of Australia as our primary location."
He added, "Working in the rugged, beautiful terrains of Australia with three of the world’s most talented, dedicated actors in Charlize Theron, Taron Egerton, and Eric Bana is such a joy - even as I put them through the (ringer) in this unique survivor story."
Theron and Kormakur are producing Apex. The film is backed by Chernin Entertainment, Ian Bryce Productions, Secret Menu, and RVK Studios.
