Trailer for Keira Knightley's Serial Killer Thriller BOSTON STRANGLER
20th Century Studios and Hulu have released the trailer for the upcoming serial killer crime thriller Boston Strangler, which is obviously based on the infamous "Boston Strangler" serial killer from the 1960s. The film centers on two women who helped uncover one of history’s most notorious serial killers.
I enjoy a good crime movie, and this one looks like it tells an interesting story. While I’m familiar with the Boston Strangler, I’m not familiar with the story that this movie is going to tell.
The film stars Keira Knightley and Carrie Coon. Knightley plays Loretta McLaughlin, “a reporter for the Record-American newspaper, who becomes the first journalist to connect the Boston Strangler murders. As the mysterious killer claims more and more victims, Loretta attempts to continue her investigation alongside colleague and confidante Jean Cole (Coon), yet the duo finds themselves stymied by rampant sexism of the era. Nevertheless, McLaughlin and Cole bravely pursue the story at great personal risk, putting their own lives on the line in their quest to uncover the truth.”
Boston Strangler was written and directed by Matt Ruskin, director of the films Booster, The Hip Hop Project, and Crown Heights. The cast also includes Alessandro Nivola, Chris Cooper, David Dastmalchian, Robert John Burke, Morgan Spector, and Bill Camp.
20th Century Studio will release Boston Strangler on Hulu on March 17th, 2023.
