Intense Teaser Trailer for the Crime Thriller COME WITH ME with Theo Rossi and Ron Perlman

An early teaser has arrived for Come With Me, a gritty indie crime thriller that’s gearing up for its premiere at the Beverly Hills Film Festival 2026. Directed by Aaron Harvey, the film looks like a dark, character-driven spiral into paranoia, morality, and the stories we tell ourselves to justify both.

The film centers on Simon Ward, played by Theo Rossi, a working-class man whose life fractures after a violent home invasion. Already dealing with pressure at work and personal loss, Simon starts leaning into the idea of taking control in the only way he thinks he can.

That mindset is fueled by a provocative radio host played by Ron Perlman, pushing him further down a path that blurs the line between justice and obsession.

Set and shot in Mississippi, Come With Me leans into a grounded, uneasy atmosphere as Simon’s grip on reality begins to slip.

The story tracks his internal unraveling as he tries to “fix” the world around him, even as his actions become increasingly dangerous.

Harvey, who previously directed Catch .44, The Neighbor, and Into the Ashes, is aiming to tap into something timely here examining how modern influences and personal trauma can collide in volatile ways.

The filmmaker shared his long-standing connection to the project, saying: "Come With Me is a film that I've been wanting to make since starting my filmmaking journey.

“I've always been interested in films that are reflective of the times and the current sociopolitical climate(s), yet also retain a conventional narrative that can work just as well in the immediate moment as it can if viewed 20 years on...

“As you see in the picture, the film deals heavily with themes of perception and paranoia, specifically what we ingest and choose to bring into our minds, and how that shapes both our personal realities and our view of the world around us - yet all couched within a thrilling narrative. Hopefully we've crafted that uniquely enough, and are able to take the audience on that ride through the lens of Theo's minds-eye."

The supporting cast includes Kate French, Ronnie Gene Blevins, Michael Sirow, and Chris Mullinax. Described as “both a film for now and a cautionary tale for the future,” Come With Me is stepping into a crowded but relevant space of indie storytelling that’s taking a hard look at contemporary America.

With its upcoming festival debut, this is one to keep an eye on if you’re into crime dramas that dig into psychology and social tension rather than just surface-level thrills.
