Emma Thompson stumbles across a kidnapping, and risks her life trying to save the hostage, in the tense first trailer for upcoming thriller Dead of Winter. Think Fargo and True Detective meets Taken, and you're pretty much there – and man, it's exciting to see the Sense and Sensibility actor in this new kind of role.
Directed by Brian Kirk, whose previous credits include Game of Thrones, Boardwalk Empire, and The Day of the Jackal, the movie follows Barb, a store owner who ventures into the Minnesota wilderness to scatter her late husband's ashes. When a blizzard causes her to hang tight on the mountains, she randomly witnesses a frantic, young woman getting chased by a gun-wielding man.
