Antlers had been set for release in theaters on April 17, 2020 via Disney’s Searchlight, but that date was of course bumped back indefinitely due to the ongoing pandemic. A new date of February 19, 2021 was subsequently announced but then also ditched, but now the final date (hopefully) has been set in stone.
Searchlight will release Antlers in theaters on October 29, 2021.
Acclaimed director Scott Cooper (Crazy Heart, Hostiles) and horror maestro Guillermo del Toro (The Shape of Water) tease their upcoming Searchlight Pictures movie Antlers along with how they designed the Wendigo-inspired monster. In addition, the two go in-depth on the craft of filmmaking and how they create a visual style. Moderated by Collider's editor-in-chief Steven Weintraub.
