Over the weekend, as part of Disney’s D23 event, Marvel Studios officially announced and debuted the official trailer for its upcoming Halloween special for Disney+, “Werewolf By Night.”
On a dark and somber night, a secret cabal of monster hunters emerge from the shadows and gather at the foreboding Bloodstone Temple following the death of their leader. In a strange and macabre memorial to the leader’s life, the attendees are thrust into a mysterious and deadly competition for a powerful relic—a hunt that will ultimately bring them face to face with a dangerous monster. Inspired by horror films of the 1930s and 1940s, the chilling special aims to evoke a sense of dread and the macabre, with plenty of suspense and scares along the way as we explore a new corner of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The special, which the studio is calling “fun-scary,” is directed by Michael Giacchino and stars Gael García Bernal and Laura Donnelly. Bernal plays the title character, Jack Russell, aka Werewolf by Night, with Donnelly playing monster hunter Elsa Bloodstone.
Rounding out the cast are Harriet Sansom Harris, Eugenie Bondurant, Kirk Thatcher, and Al Hamacher. Watch the brand-new trailer for Marvel Studios’ Special Presentation: Werewolf By Night, streaming October 7 only on Disney+ below:
