Star Wars’ star Daisy Ridley is searching for her husband in the wake of catastrophe in We Bury the Dead, and our exclusive new clip sees her character pondering an encounter with the resurrecting dead.
Vertical will release the zombie film in theaters on January 2, 2026.
After a catastrophic American military experiment results in mass casualties across Tasmania, Ava (Ridley) joins a body retrieval unit to help identify the dead and search for her husband in the southern part of the island. As Ava makes her way south, across the ravaged landscape, she soon learns that some of the victims of the disaster are coming back to life.
We Bury the Dead is written and directed by Zak Hilditch (1922).
Brenton Thwaites (Ghosts of War, Maleficent), Mark Coles Smith (Beast of War), and Matt Whelan (“Narcos”) co-star.
Kelvin Munro, Grant Sputore, Ross M. Dinerstein, Joshua Harris, and Mark Fasano produce.
“We Bury The Dead has been a true labor of love since day one from everyone involved, and it’s been great seeing the responses to the film so far. I can’t wait for a wider audience to experience the film on the big screen across North America,” Hilditch said in a statement.
