The first poster and trailer for Send Help, a darkly comedic psychological thriller from Sam Raimi, are finally here, giving us our first real look at the film before it hits theatres in January 2026. Known for his unique mix of suspense, humour and thrilling twists, Raimi promises a story that keeps audiences on edge while sneaking in unexpected laughs along the way.

The story follows Linda Liddle, played by Rachel McAdams, and Bradley Preston, played by Dylan O’Brien, two coworkers who survive a plane crash only to find themselves alone on a deserted island. What starts as a fight for survival soon becomes a tense and unpredictable game of wits as old tensions and personal conflicts come to the surface. It’s a story that shows how isolation and extreme situations can bring out both the best and worst in people, with moments that are as funny as they are intense.

Raimi says he’s always been drawn to stories where interesting characters are pushed to their limits. “The power shifts create an escalating situation that’s brimming with unexpected turns and suspense,” he says. The trailer gives a taste of this, teasing clever strategies, tense confrontations and plenty of darkly funny moments that keep you guessing what will happen next.
