The Innocents First Trailer Reveals A Teen Love Thriller With A Supernatural Twist

you may wish to clear your schedule for August 24, because that's the day Netflix will drop The Innocents — and based on this two-and-a-half-minute trailer alone, it looks highly binge-worthy.


Allocating a lot more statistics than the vague teaser announcement — nevertheless yet still pretty nebulous — the trailer opens with the plot point we already knew: two teens, Harry (Percelle Ascott) and June (Sorcha Groundsell), run away to be together.


At the same time, three adults conspire to kidnap June, insisting she's in grave danger. It seems like that danger originates with a unknown third party — not kidnappers themselves — yet in spite of the fact that the kidnappers don't seem all that trustworthy either. Immediately after coming face-to-face with one of those ominous-looking adults, June somehow activates her own shape-shifting abilities, leaving her and Harry (and me, if I'm being trustworthy) completely scared and confused.


With a tagline of "What you visualize isn't what you visualize I'm not really sure what I just saw. Who is beneficial? Who is bad? Who is real and who is shape-shifting?!


We'll find out on August 24. Up until then, check out the opening trailer for Netflix's The Innocents above.
