Jack Quaid and Sophie Thatcher shine in twisted sci-fi horror ‘Companion’

The first trailer for Companion, a chilling sci-fi horror from the creators of Barbarian, reveals a love story turned sinister. Starring The Boys’ Jack Quaid and Yellowjackets star Sophie Thatcher, the trailer teases a blood-soaked revenge plot set against a futuristic backdrop.

The trailer opens with Thatcher’s Iris narrating: “There have been two moments in my life when I was happiest. The first was the day I met Josh, and the second, the day I killed him.” This shocking twist introduces the film’s unconventional premise, where Iris, revealed as a highly intelligent robot, seeks revenge on Quaid’s Josh for manipulating and experimenting on her.

Directed and written by Drew Hancock, the film combines horror and sci-fi to explore themes of control, intelligence, and vengeance. The cast also features Lukas Gage, Megan Suri, Harvey Guillén, and Rupert Friend, delivering a well-rounded ensemble performance.

Companion hits theaters on January 31, promising a gripping tale of sci-fi horror packed with emotional depth and unexpected twists.
