Tensions gradually rise at a girls' school in Sofia Coppola's Civil War-era thriller The Beguiled, which is teased in its first trailer ahead of its summer release from Focus Features.
"The Beguiled, adapted by Sofia Coppola from Thomas Cullinan’s novel of the same name, unfolds in a girls’ school in the state of Virginia in 1864. As the Civil War rages, The Miss Martha Farnsworth Seminary for Young Ladies has been sheltered from the outside world— until the day a wounded Union soldier is discovered nearby and taken in."
"Acclaimed writer/director Sofia Coppola brings you a seductive thriller starring Colin Farrell, Nicole Kidman, Kirsten Dunst, and Elle Fanning."
Focus Features will release The Beguiled in select theaters on June 23rd, followed by a wide theatrical release on June 30th. Stay tuned to Daily Dead for more details.

When he’s not writing about horror as the Senior News Reporter for Daily Dead, Derek can be found daydreaming about the Santa Carla Boardwalk from The Lost Boys or reading Stephen King and Brian Keene novels.
