Netflix has released the trailer for its upcoming horror thriller “The Deliverance,” starring Andra Day, Glenn Close, Caleb McLaughlin, Mo’Nique and Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor. The film follows a family living in Indiana who are plagued by supernatural and demonic occurrences that lead them and their community to believe their house is a portal to hell.
“The Deliverance” marks the second collaboration between director Lee Daniels and Day, with their first being the 2021 drama “The United States vs. Billie Holiday.” Day went on to be nominated for best performance by an actress in a leading role at the 2021 Academy Awards for her portrayal of the iconic jazz singer.
