How to Make a Killer Trailer -Like, Literally
The trailer for How to Make a Killing has just dropped, and it looks like Glen Powell is ready to murder for his chance at a fortune. The film from A24 and director John Patton Ford hits theatres on February 20, 2026, and the first look sets the tone. Powell plays Becket Redfellow, the disowned son of a billionaire family who decides the only way to claim what he thinks he deserves is to eliminate the rest of the family. The trailer shows red carpet chaos, media clips, mansions, a bow and arrow in hand and a voice saying there are seven rich pricks between him and twenty eight billion dollars.
Powell is joined by Margaret Qualley, Ed Harris, Jessica Henwick, Zach Woods, and Topher Grace. The premise draws inspiration from the 1949 dark comedy Kind Hearts and Coronets, updating the idea of killing through a family tree with A24-style modern satire.
People online are calling the trailer wild, stylish, and uncomfortably funny. A lot of fans seem shocked to see Powell embracing full villain energy. My take is simple. He looks like he is having the time of his life playing someone nobody should trust for even five seconds, and the trailer works because of that shift.
For anyone who loves messy family drama wrapped in glossy crime storytelling, this one is already on the must-watch list for 2026.
