A New Trailer and Release Date For ‘Love Lies Bleeding’ Takes Us on a Thrilling Ride

Kristen Stewart and Katy O’Brian star in Love Lies Bleeding, a thriller and romance movie set in the competitive world of bodybuilding. And from everything we’ve heard so far, this is one movie we’re going to die for.

Tidbits about Love Lies Bleeding have circled the internet since early 2022. Stewart announced she was excited to work with writer and director Rose Glass for this movie, who previously created the psychological thriller Saint Maude (2019). Principal filming took place that same year and wrapped post-production early in 2023.

With the film being released at Sundance this year, the hype for the O’Brian/Stewart team up got increasingly louder. Now, we have a brand new trailer to get us excited!

Here’s what we know so far.

Who is in the cast of Love Lies Bleeding?

Love Lies Bleeding boasts a talented cast of actors. Kristen Stewart (Spencer) and Katy O’Brian (Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania) play the two key roles. The supporting cast also includes Dave Franco (Day Shift), Ed Harris (Westworld), Jena Malone (The Hunger Games: Catching Fire), and Anna Baryshnikov (Dickinson).

What is Love Lies Bleeding about?

The first trailer for Love Lies Bleeding gave us our first real look into this interesting movie back in December of 2023. Lou (Stewart) is trapped in a life of crime thanks to her father, played by Ed Harris. Jackie (O’Brian) comes through town on her way to bigger and better things only to become wrapped up in Lou’s family mess. It looks like murder, lots of guns, and weightlifting. After watching the trailer, it seems they set the movie in the 1980s when greed was good. It’s going to be a messy, but thrilling, ride.

The official logline can be found on A24’s website:

From Director Rose Glass comes an electric new love story; reclusive gym manager Lou falls hard for Jackie, an ambitious bodybuilder headed through town to Vegas in pursuit of her dream. But their love ignites violence, pulling them deep into the web of Lou’s criminal family.

So when can we see it??

Love Lies Bleeding originally premiered at the Sundance film festival this year. Earning rave reviews, it didn’t help quell our desire to see the movie! But there doesn’t seem to be much of a wait. Now, it looks like fans of Stewart’s and O’Brian’s can see Love Lies Bleeding for themselves on March 8th!
