“You die so he doesn’t have to… Maybe it’s time to turn the tables?” Vertigo Releasing has unveiled the first official trailer for an acclaimed indie romantic comedy remix called Timestalker, made by filmmaker Alice Lowe (of the horror Prevenge before this). This film first premiered at the 2024 SXSW Film Festival, and it also played at Fantasia, Locarno, and Edinburgh this year. Follow hapless heroine Agnes through time as she repeatedly falls for the wrong guy, dies a grim death, gets reincarnated a century later, before meeting him again and starting the cycle anew. Agnes’ only hope in avoiding this violent fate is by finally reaching spiritual enlightenment; but how can she ever wise up when she’s destined to be a fool for love forever and ever? Some lessons are just too hard to learn in one lifetime… Timestalker stars Alice Lowe as Agnes, Aneurin Barnard, Tanya Reynolds, Jacob Anderson, Kate Dickie, and Nick Frost. Yes! It’s a time loop comedy satire of the romcom genre, and everyone says it’s especially hilarious and clever. Check it out.
Here’s the first official UK trailer (+ poster) for Alice Lowe’s film Timestalker, direct from YouTube:
Follow hapless heroine Agnes (Alice Lowe) through time as she repeatedly falls for the wrong guy, dies a grim death, and is reincarnated a century later, before meeting him again and starting the cycle anew. It is one story told over many periods, all with the messy thrills and spills that come with daring to follow your heart. Or maybe your loins… Timestalker is written and directed by UK actor-turned-filmmaker Alice Lowe, making her second feature film after directing the horror film Prevenge previously, and one other short. Produced by Mark Hopkins, Vaughan Sivell, Natan Stoessel, and Tom Wood. This initially premiered at the 2024 SXSW Film Festival earlier this year. Vertigo Releasing will release Lowe’s Timestalker in UK cinemas starting October 11th, 2024 this fall. No US release date is set yet – stay tuned. Who’s up for this?
