A Soldier Trapped in a Mysterious Cube ‘The Abandon’ Sci-Fi Trailer

"Whoever they are – they want something." Lionsgate has revealed an official trailer for a sci-fi thriller film titled The Abandon, set for a VOD release in July. This initially premiered back in 2022 at the Mammoth Film Festival and Panic Fest (here's the early teaser), only getting a proper release now years later.

The cast also includes Joseph Quinn, Alex Wolff, Djimon Hounsou, & Denis O'Hare. I would watch an entire behind-the-scenes doc about making this movie with these acting cats!
