Jesse Plemons is convinced Emma Stone IS an alien in the latest comedy/sci-fi trailer for Bugonia—and we’re not saying he’s wrong.
Focus Features has unleashed a brand-new, dark, intriguing, moody trailer for Bugonia, the third and most revealing look yet at this genre-bending black comedy sci-fi thriller.
Director Yorgos Lanthimos—known for Poor Things, The Favourite, and Kinds of Kindness—delivers a surreal, satirical ride that’s equal parts conspiracy chaos and psychological mind-bender.
Don’t forget, cause we won’t. Bugonia hits theaters in limited release October 24, before expanding wide on October 31—just in time for the Halloween 2025 season.
Need a refresher on the official synopsis? It reads as follows:
Emma Stone stars as the high-powered CEO of a major company who is kidnapped by two conspiracy-obsessed young men, played by Jesse Plemons and newcomer Aidan Delbis, convinced she’s an alien intent on destroying planet Earth.
Based on the cult South Korean film Save the Green Planet!, Bugonia is already earning rave reviews from its Venice Film Festival debut and sits at a 90% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Purrrfect for the Halloween 2025 season.
