A new teaser for Jeremy Saulnier’s Slayground puts a haunted-attraction worker at the centre of a murder mystery. The preview emerged on October 20, while A24’s official film page confirms a January 29, 2027 theatrical opening. Cory Michael Smith plays scare actor Mike Graves, who wakes among the bodies of his

co-workers without knowing how they died. As authorities search for him across the state, he tries to reconstruct the missing events and discover whether the evidence points back to him. The setup makes recovering his memory as urgent as escaping the manhunt. Saulnier writes and directs. The ensemble includes Chase Sui

Wonders, Sophie Wilde, Stanley Simons, James Badge Dale, Stephen Root, Chris Sullivan, Young Mazino, Imogen Poots, Matty Matheson and Macon Blair. For viewers following the director’s return to action and horror, the new promotional material supplies a clearer central predicament alongside a dated theatrical plan.

January 29 is the announced opening, rather than a streaming release. Official source. Image credit: A24.
