The Wicker Trailer Has The Internet Buzzing About One Thing: A Wicker Weiner

Horny confusion levels on the internet have reached an all-time high after the trailer for Wicker dropped.

In case you’ve been off the internet, people are buzzing over Wicker, a fantasy rom-com that’s set to weave into our theatres sometime this year.

The movie, by Aussie-born Eleanor Wilson and Alex Huston Fischer, is an adaptation of Ursula Wills-Jones‘ 2008 short story, The Wicker Husband, that follows a single fisherwoman (Olivia Colman) who asks a basketmaker (Peter Dinklage) to weave her a husband out of wicker after being teased for being partnerless in a village where marriage tends to be the norm.

When her Wicker Husband (played by the one and only Alexander Skarsgård) comes to life and exceeds all expectations of a perfect partner (including the sex, which we will get into in a sec), her fellow villagers grow jealous, leading to some major mischief and debauchery.

Take a peek below at the Wicker trailer (warning, there’s a bit of ~passionate moments~ in there, just in case you need headphones):

The internet reacts to Alexander Skarsgård as the Wicker Husband in Wicker

While the story appears to explore the very important and relevant themes of loneliness, belonging, relationships, conformity and jealousy, fans are only thinking about one thing: the wicker peen.

This includes how hot the Wicker Husband is, what the peen looks like, and concerns over splinters… That’s the internet for you.

If you’re curious about how they brought the Wicker Husband to life, Fischer and Wilson revealed to Entertainment Weekly that Skarsgård was wearing a wicker suit.

“My dream was always to have nipples made out of wicker. Thanks to our wonderful directors, Eleanor and Alex, and the brilliant artists at Wētā in New Zealand, my dream has finally come true,” Skarsgård told EW.

At the time of writing, we’ve yet to gain any knowledge regarding the wicker peen specifically, BUT if I ever bump into the directors, Coleman, Skarsgård or Dinklage, I know exactly what I’m asking… #bootsonthegroundjournalism.

Wicker will premiere Down Under at the Melbourne International Film Festival (MIFF) on August 6.
