Freaky Tales Trailer From Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden

Lionsgate has revealed the trailer for the action comedy Freaky Tales, which will open in theaters on April 4, 2025. The film has been rated R for strong bloody violence, language throughout including slurs, sexual content and drug use.

Set in 1987 Oakland, Freaky Tales is a multi-track mixtape of colorful characters — an NBA star, a corrupt cop, a female rap duo, teen punks, neo-Nazis, and a debt collector — on a collision course in a fever dream of showdowns and battles.

The movie was written and directed by Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden. Their credits include Half Nelson, Sugar, Captain Marvel and Mrs. America.

Executive produced by hip-hop pioneer Too $hort, and featuring an all-star ensemble including Pedro Pascal, Ben Mendelsohn, Jay Ellis, Normani, Dominique Thorne, Jack Champion, Ji-young Yoo, Angus Cloud and Tom Hanks, this pulpy blend of explosive action, edgy humor, gory kills, and sly twists and turns makes for one wild ride.

The film’s producers include Anna Boden, p.g.a., Ryan Fleck, p.g.a., Jelani Johnson, p.g.a. and Poppy Hanks, p.g.a.

The executive producers include Jillian Share, Jen Gorton, Charles D. King, James Lopez, Justin Bursch, Victor Moyers, Todd Anthony Shaw and David Weintraub. Freaky Tales, a Macro Media production and Gowanus Projection movie, is presented by Entertainment One.
