"Thomas, your sister... she's gone." If you've been eagerly awaiting the next movie from Gareth Evans—director of The Raid movies and the "Safe Haven" segment of V/H/S/ 2—you won't have to wait long, as Netflix will release his 1905-set film Apostle worldwide on October 12th, and we have a look at the official trailer ahead of its release.

Written and directed by Gareth Evans, and produced by Aram Tertzakian and Ed Talfan, Apostle stars Dan Stevens, Lucy Boynton, Mark Lewis Jones, Bill Milner, Kristine Froseth, Paul Higgins, and Michael Sheen.

Synopsis: "London, 1905. Prodigal son Thomas Richardson (Dan Stevens) has returned home, only to learn that his sister is being held for ransom by a religious cult. Determined to get her back at any cost, Thomas travels to the idyllic island where the cult lives under the leadership of the charismatic Prophet Malcolm (Michael Sheen). As Thomas infiltrates the island's community, he learns that the corruption of mainland society that they claim to reject has infested the cult's ranks nonetheless - and uncovers a secret far more evil than he could have imagined. Written and directed by Gareth Evans (THE RAID), APOSTLE is a harrowing occult fable where the only thing more horrifying than madness is the sinister reality behind it."
