Watch: Patrick Stewart Is Ready To Let ‘Em Bleed In New Trailer For Jeremy Saulnier’s ‘Green Room’

Green RoomWorst. Gig. Ever. If you were asked to describe Jeremy Saulnier‘s "Green Room" in three words, that would work perfectly, because what starts out as just another punk-rock show turns into something dangerous and deadly in the latest from the director of "Blue Ruin."

Patrick Stewart chillingly plays the leader of a group of white-pride skinheads in the film featuring Anton Yelchin, Imogen Poots, Alia Shawkat, Joe Cole, Callum Turner, Mark Webber, Eric Edelstein, Macon Blair, and Kai Lennox, about a scrappy punk band who becomes witnesses to a murder after a concert, and have to try and get out alive. Here’s the official synopsis: 

GREEN ROOM is a brilliantly crafted and wickedly fun horror-thriller starring Patrick Stewart as a diabolical club owner who squares off against an unsuspecting but resilient young punk band. Down on their luck punk rockers The Ain’t Rights are finishing up a long and unsuccessful tour, and are about to call it quits when they get an unexpected booking at an isolated, run-down club deep in the backwoods of Oregon.  What seems merely to be a third-rate gig escalates into something much more sinister when they witness an act of violence backstage that they weren’t meant to see.  Now trapped backstage, they must face off against the club’s depraved owner, Darcy Banker (Stewart), a man who will do anything to protect the secrets of his nefarious enterprise.  But while Darcy and his henchmen think the band will be easy to get rid of, The Ain’t Rights prove themselves much more cunning and capable than anyone expected, turning the tables on their unsuspecting captors and setting the stage for the ultimate life-or-death showdown. Intense, emotional, and ingeniously twisted, Green Room is genre filmmaking at its best and most original. Saulnier continues to build his reputation as one of the most exciting and distinctive directors working today, with a movie that’s completely different from his previous, highly acclaimed Blue Ruin, but which is just as risk-taking and even more full of twists. The entire cast deliver first-rate performances, but Patrick Stewart gives a transformative and brilliantly  devious turn as Darcy-elegant yet lethal, droll yet terrifying, Stewart makes the film simply unforgettable. 

"Green Room" opens in New York and Los Angeles on April 15th and goes wide on April 29th. Watch below. Update 3/18: Check out the new green band/UK version of the trailer as well.
