Netflix has landed the teaser trailer for The Guilty, an upcoming film led by Jake Gyllenhaal which will land in select cinemas in September before landing on the streaming service on 1st October. The film plays out in a 911 call centre with Gyllenhaal playing on of their call operators.
The trailer doesn’t give too much away but this sets things up for a film that looks quite interesting.
The official logline is as follows:
The film takes place over the course of a single morning in a 911 dispatch call center. Call operator Joe Baylor (Gyllenhaal) tries to save a caller in grave danger—but he soon discovers that nothing is as it seems, and facing the truth is the only way out.
The film is actually a remake of a Danish movie and is directed and produced by Antoine Fuqua, from a screenplay by Nic Pizzolatto – so we expect great things from this one.
Watch the trailer below.
