In the Blink of an Eye Trailer Revealed by Hulu and Searchlight
Hulu and Searchlight Pictures have revealed the official trailer for In the Blink of an Eye, the upcoming sci-fi drama film directed by Andrew Stanton (Toy Story 5, Finding Dory, John Carter, WALL·E, Finding Nemo).
In the Blink of an Eye premiered at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival on January 26, 2026, where it won the Alfred P. Sloan Prize. It is scheduled for a streaming release on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+ for bundle subscribers on February 27.
From the 2016 Black List script by Colby Day (Spaceman), Andrew Stanton crafts an interwoven triptych that contemplates the essence of humanity throughout time. Across these millennia, one constant has remained: our desire to connect with each other and the world that sustains us.
In the distant past, a Neanderthal family (Jorge Vargas, Tanaya Beatty) displaced from their home struggles to survive, protecting their children and learning to wield primitive tools in an unforgiving world.
In the present day, Claire (Rashida Jones), a driven postgraduate anthropologist studying ancient proto-human remains, begins a tentative relationship with a fellow student, Greg (Daveed Diggs).
And two centuries later, aboard a spaceship bound for a distant planet, Coakley (Kate McKinnon) and a sentient onboard computer confront a mysterious disease threatening the ship’s oxygen-producing plants. Three storylines, spanning thousands of years, intersect and reflect on hope, connection, and the circle of life.
The film stars Kate McKinnon (Bombshell, Saturday Night Live, Ghostbusters), Rashida Jones (On the Rocks, Parks and Recreation), Daveed Diggs (Hamilton), Jorge Vargas (Snowpiercer), and Tanaya Beatty (Yellowstone).
In the Blink of an Eye was rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association (MPA) for sexual content, thematic material, and some bloody images.
The film was produced by Jared Ian Goldman (Ingrid Goes West, Russian Doll). The script is penned by writer/executive producer Colby Day (Spaceman, For All Mankind).
Joining Stanton behind the camera are director of photography Ole Birkeland (Judy, Ticket to Paradise), production designer Ola Maslik (The Skeleton Twins, Madam Secretary), editor Mollie Goldstein (Not Okay, Dickinson), costume designer Mirren Gordon-Crozier (Where the Crawdads Sing, Teen Spirit), and VFX Supervisor Jake Braver (Birdman, Pale Blue Eyes).
