Kit Harington is donning furs once more. The Game of Thrones actor is starring in an upcoming horror movie called The Beast Within, where he is a father who also happens to be a werewolf.

The trailer, first shared by IGN, shows Harington’s character living a life of seclusion in the woods with his wife and young daughter. The clip is cut in a way that strongly suggests that the father’s transformation into a murderous beast could be a metaphor for abusive family dynamics—your father loves us, even though it might 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁 us!—and is chilling either way.

Here’s the official synopsis:

After a series of strange events leads her to question her family’s isolated life on a fortified compound deep in the English wilds, 10-year-old Willow follows her parents on one of their secret late-night treks to the heart of the ancient forest. But upon witnessing her father undergo a terrible transformation, she too becomes ensnared by the dark ancestral secret they’ve tried so desperately to conceal.

In addition to Harington, The Beast Within stars Ashleigh Cummings, James Cosmo, and Caoilinn Springall. It’s directed by Alexander J. Farrell and co-written by Farrell and Greer Taylor Ellison.

The film premieres in theaters on July 26, 2024.
