Zack Snyder’s New Action-Thriller Sets Release Date With Grisly First Trailer

Zack Snyder's long-in-development pet project is premiering soon Zack Snyder posted the first trailer for his upcoming film The Last Photograph, and it’s probably not what you would expect from the director. The nearly three-minute teaser focuses on sensory details instead of superpowered heroics: a man rubs his hand over a bar table while another lies shirtless in a boat as it glides down a river. Yes, there is still plenty of violence and killing, but it appears more melancholic than gung-ho, seemingly borrowing from Heart of Darkness and its adaptation Apocalypse Now. An ex-DEA operative must return to the mountains of South America in an effort to find his missing niece and nephew, following the brutal murders of their diplomat parents. Enlisting the help of a washed-up junkie war photographer, the only person to have seen the face of the killers, he sets out, determined to find the children and the truth, but soon learns he must also face the ghosts of his past. Their journey into the unknown takes them further and further away from civilization, bringing into question everything they believe, while slowly eroding the distinction between real and surreal.
