A24 Releases Trailer for Death of a Unicorn

A24 has released the trailer for 'Death of a Unicorn', a black comedy starring Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega as a father and daughter who accidentally kill a unicorn on their way to a retreat hosted by Rudd's billionaire boss, played by Richard E. Grant. As they attempt to conceal their mishap, they discover that the unicorn's blood and horn shavings possess miraculous cancer-curing properties, prompting Grant's character to exploit the situation. The film, directed by Alex Scharfman, also features Téa Leoni and Will Poulter in supporting roles. Notably, the production was allowed to continue filming during the SAG-AFTRA strike due to a waiver. 'Death of a Unicorn' is set to premiere in Spring 2025, with a soundtrack created by John Carpenter and his collaborators. The film showcases a blend of humor and fantasy, raising questions about the consequences of their actions against a backdrop of corporate greed.
