Romain Gavras’s Sacrifice has arrived on Netflix, bringing Chris Evans and Anya Taylor-Joy into a dark comedy about celebrity, conviction and an alarming demand for human offerings. The platform’s October 16 release coverage identifies it as a new film available to stream, with Gavras directing a script co-written with

Will Arbery. Evans plays Mike Tyler, a struggling movie star attending an environmental charity gala on a Greek island. Taylor-Joy’s Joan and her followers take the gathering hostage because they believe a volcanic sacrifice can prevent catastrophe. Vincent Cassel and Salma Hayek-Pinault are among the ensemble

surrounding that collision of wealthy performance and radical belief. The premise gives the film a satirical starting point without requiring viewers to read its newly published ending explanation first. Those curious about the cast’s increasingly desperate bargain can begin with the official trailer and the film

itself. Image: Netflix; official Sacrifice promotional still.
