Zachary Quinto Picks Up Jacob Elordi in ‘He Went That Way’ Trailer

"If I can teach a chimpanzee how to play the piano, then, you can do whatever you wanna do...!" Vertical has unveiled an official trailer for a indie thriller called He Went That Way, which is a clever title for a film like this. It first premiered at the 2023 Tribeca Film Festival earlier this year, and it's set for a VOD + theatrical release in early January 2024. He Went That Way is a taut thriller centered on the true story of a celebrity animal trainer who picks up a hitchhiker, only to discover his passenger is a young, cunning serial killer. Tribeca adds: "This film is as much about a found family as it is a volatile crime drama centered on a serial killer and his captives on the road. Quinto & Elordi draw the audience in with captivating chemistry as both performances bring out stark revelations about [each one], and the difficulty of walking with kindness while navigating a brutal world." He Went That Way stars Zachary Quinto and Jacob Elordi (from this year's Saltburn & Priscilla), ...
