The anticipation is running high forEmerald Fennell’s upcoming featureSaltburn,starringBarry KeoghanandJacob Elordi. As the movie approaches its world premiere at the upcoming BFI London Film Festival, MGM and Amazon Studios have started teasing the thriller drama with trailers and images. While the details are kept tightly under wraps the promotional material gives us a good taste of tone, and mood of the film.
Two new posters add tothe charm and mystery of the upcoming feature, as the first poster sees Keoghan lost in his thoughts with a background of the Saltburn estate. The poster perfectly conveys the state of his mind, as upon closer inspection you’ll find the image in the poster is upside-down. Further capturing the mood of the film is Elordi’s poster that captures his silhouette against a window, with smoke filling the air. Overall the posters maintain the mysterious thrilling vibe of the drama.
