Eden Movie Reveals New Trailer and Poster
Vertical has released the official trailer and poster for Ron Howard’s Eden movie, which is set to open in theaters on August 22, 2025. The film has been rated R by the Motion Picture Association (MPA) for some strong violence, sexual content, graphic nudity, and language.
From Academy Award–winning director Ron Howard, the survival thriller unravels the shocking true story of a group of disillusioned outsiders (Jude Law, Ana de Armas, Vanessa Kirby, Daniel Brühl, and Sydney Sweeney) who abandon modern society in search of a new beginning.
Settling on a remote, uninhabited island, their utopian dream quickly unravels as they discover that the greatest threat isn’t the brutal climate or deadly wildlife, but each other. What follows is a chilling descent into chaos where tensions spiral, desperation takes hold, and a twisted power struggle leads to betrayal, violence, and the deaths of half the colony.
“Thanks to our partners at AGC Studios, Vertical, and our amazing team at Imagine Entertainment, I’m thrilled to be able to share Eden with audiences in the U.S.,” said Ron Howard previously.
Howard continued, “This story has been a passion project for me for years, rooted in the incredible true events of three wildly different groups of people who chose to leave modern society behind and recreate themselves on an uninhabited island in the Galapagos.
“The complexity of the characters and the collision of personalities that resulted are what drew me in, and I hope audiences connect with the profound themes of survival and human nature. It’s a story that feels so relevant today, and I’m excited for audiences to experience it on the big screen!”
“We’re delighted at Vertical’s passion for the film and at their belief in the theatrical experience. We hope that US cinema audiences are going to be surprised and delighted at this dazzling, edgy, and ultimately shocking story that Ron, Imagine, and this amazing cast have boldly brought to the big screen,” said AGC Studios Chairman & CEO Stuart Ford.
“We couldn’t be more excited to bring Eden to U.S. audiences. Ron Howard, a legendary filmmaker, delivers a masterful vision at the peak of his craft,” said Vertical Partner Peter Jarowey. “It’s a thrill to reunite with our friends at AGC and Jude following last year’s The Order campaign, and we can’t wait to collaborate with the exceptional talents of Ana, Vanessa, Daniel, and Sydney.”
The film was produced by Ron Howard (p.g.a.), Brian Grazer (p.g.a.), Karen Lunder (p.g.a.), Stuart Ford, William M. Connor (p.g.a.), and Patrick Newall, and executive produced by Miguel Palos, Zach Garrett, Craig McMahon, Noah Pink, Mathias Herndl, Namit Malhotra, David Taghioff, Masha Magonova, and Matt Murphie.
Additional below-the-line talent of the Eden movie includes director of photography Mathias Herndl (The Twilight Zone, Genius), production designer Michelle McGahey (Blacklight), editor Matt Villa (Elvis), and costume designer Kerry Thompson (Boy Swallows Universe), with casting by Nikki Barrett (The Power of the Dog), and music by two-time Oscar-winner Hans Zimmer (Dune, The Lion King).
