Netflix Reveals First Look At Spiderhead During Geeked Week
Netflix has revealed the first footage from its upcoming movie Spiderhead during Day 2 of Geeked Week. The film is an adaptation of George Saunders' short story, Escape From Spiderhead, which was originally published by The New Yorker in 2010. It tells the story of prisoners looking to reduce their sentencing as being part of an experiment with mood-altering drugs. Netflix premiered the first trailer back in May.
In Netflix's adaptation, Chris Hemsworth stars as warden Steve Abnesti, with Miles Teller and Jurnee Smollett as prisoners Jeff and Rachel. They're joined by Tess Haubrich who plays Heather, another prisoner who we see interaction with Teller's Jeff in this first look that was revealed during Geeked Week.
In this scene, we have Jeff and Heather being tested on with some kind of drug that raises their attractiveness to one another. Hemsworth's Abnesti administers the drug remotely and watches the two inmates go from zero to 60 in a few seconds.
Originally set to have been released in the last quarter of 2021, Spiderhead premieres exclusively on Netflix June 17.
