Andrew Garfield and Ayo Edebiri brought the tense first trailer from their new thriller After the Hunt to CinemaCon.

Luca Guadagnino joined his castmembers to tease the Amazon MGM Studios film that also stars Julia Roberts and hits select theaters Oct. 10 before expanding the following week. Hailing from Imagine Entertainment,After the Huntfocuses on a college professor (Roberts) who is forced to confront her own dark past when a prominent student (Edebiri) makes an accusation against one of her colleagues (Garfield).

Ive wanted to work with Luca for 15, 20 years and finally weve gotten to do it, Garfield told the crowd. He called Guadagninos work sumptuous, sensual and life-affirming. Edebiri added, This is a movie thats built to see with other people to talk about and discuss and just feel.

The trailer shows Edebiri coming to Roberts to confide in her. He crossed the line, Edebiri says of Garfields character. He kept going after I said no.

In a later scene, Garfield tells Roberts, I told her I suspected she plagiarized. He went on to refer to the student as this lying little fucking bitch.

The trailer ends with Edebiri telling Roberts, I dont feel comfortable having this conversation with you anymore. Roberts responds, Not everything is supposed to make you feel comfortable.
