The second trailer for Prisoners has recently been released. Much like the initial trailer that came out late last month, the latest trailer is very heavy on the exposition. However, it adds a few extra wrinkles to what has already been shown. I still feel like the combination of the two aren’t hiding enough for audiences to genuinely feel surprised when the film is actually released. However, as is the goal for every trailer, I have found myself hooked even more into what Prisoners has to offer.

For those who don’t remember, the Denis Villeneuve-directed thriller stars Hugh Jackman and Terrence Howard as two parents whose young daughters have mysteriously disappeared, Jake Gyllenhaal as the detective assigned to the case, and Paul Dano as the main suspect for the crime. The cinematography is on point, the tone is very thrilling and up-tempo, and the cast is full of very talented, award-winning actors. I just hope and pray not too much will be revealed before Prisoners breaks into theaters on September 20th.
