It’s a good week for Jessie Buckley. Having just scored her first Oscar nomination for her performance in The Lost Daughter, Buckley will soon be starring in the next film from cerebral sci-fi director Alex Garland (Ex Machina, Annihilation). Below, watch the first teaser for Men, which is produced by A24.

As of now, we don’t know a lot about the film. The teaser is vague, though Buckley’s character definitely seems haunted by something, or someone. Maybe multiple someone’s, given the title. Multiple times in the teaser she spots a male-looking figure in the distance, only for him to disappear after a closer look.
Compared to Garland’s earlier films, the shots of bright green nature that are nevertheless filled with a sense of unease definitely feel closer to Annihilation‘s panorama of mutated wildlife than to Devs or Ex Machina‘s exploration of futuristic technology and human arrogance. But anything is possible!
Men, in theaters May 20, also stars Rory Kinnear and Paapa Essiedu. Check out the poster below.
