Mother! teaser: Jennifer Lawrence stars in mysterious first look at Darren Aronofsky's latest
The film is slated for a September release date in the UK, and yet very little is known about it
There's been very little word on Darren Aronofsky's voraciously anticipated next project, Mother!.
Even the film's first teaser seems to reveal almost nothing from the Black Swan filmmaker's latest, which sees star Jennifer Lawrence floating silently through an empty house, despite the sounds of an increasingly tense confrontation playing over the footage.
Before the teaser suddenly goes full-on horror: a nightmarish flash through dying flies, burning fire, Michelle Pfeiffer looking sensuous and sinister, exploding light bulbs, and an agitated Javier Bardem.
The film also stars Ed Harris (possibly spotted romancing Pfeiffer in the teaser), Domhnall Gleeson, and Kristen Wiig.
However, the only inkling of the plot released so far simply states: "A couple's relationship is tested when uninvited guests arrive their home, disrupting their tranquil existence".
There's a full trailer set to arrive next week, which will hopefully provide a few more concrete indications as to what exactly's going on here.
Mother! hits UK cinemas 15 September.
