Rachel McAdams, Dylan O'Brien battle for survival in Sam Raimi's 'Send Help' trailer

Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien fight for survival in Sam Raimi's new horror-thriller Send Help. Watch the chilling trailer now.

"He was like, 'I love the movie. It's weird. It's wacky. I think a lot of people might love it, too. I also think some might not.' - Dylan O'Brien"

Washington DC, October 15

The first trailer for Sam Raimi's upcoming horror-thriller 'Send Help' is finally here, and it's a chilling mix of survival, power struggles, and psychological tension.

The two-minute, 21-second trailer shows Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien as co-workers whose office rivalry turns deadly after they become the only survivors of a plane crash.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film follows Linda (McAdams) and Bradley (O'Brien), two colleagues stranded on a deserted island after their company plane crashes en route to a corporate event. What begins as a fight for survival soon becomes a clash of egos and buried resentment.

In one scene, O'Brien's character delivers a harsh line that sums up their toxic work dynamic, "As an executive, I see no value in you. You know we have the Bangkok merger coming up. Prove me wrong."

But after the crash, the tables turn as McAdams tells him, "You are stuck with an asshole boss, just like I was. Although I'm betting I'm a much nicer boss than you would have ever been, except for maybe this part."

'Send Help' marks Sam Raimi's return to the horror genre after more than a decade. The film is written by Mark Swift and Damian Shannon, with Raimi and Zainab Azizi producing. The cast also includes Dennis Haysbert, Chris Pang, Edyll Ismail, Xavier Samuel, Thaneth Warakulnukroh, and Emma Raimi.

Raimi, known for cult favourites like The Evil Dead and Drag Me to Hell, last directed Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in 2022, which also starred McAdams.

Speaking about the project, O'Brien recently shared what Raimi told him about the movie, "He was like, 'I love the movie. It's weird. It's wacky. I think a lot of people might love it, too. I also think some might not.' And I was like, 'Well, that's great.' To me, we've succeeded if that's the case," O'Brien told The Hollywood Reporter last month.

Send Help is set to hit theatres on January 30, 2026.

The corporate rivalry angle is so relatable! In India, we see similar power struggles in offices every day. Wonder if they'll show any character development or just keep fighting throughout the movie.

January 2026 is too far away! 😫 The premise sounds amazing though - Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien have great chemistry. Hope the story does justice to the interesting setup.

Honestly, I'm a bit tired of Hollywood survival stories. We have so many amazing survival stories from Indian mountains and forests that would make better movies. But Raimi's touch might make this different.

The trailer dialogue about "prove me wrong" hits close to home! So many Indian managers have this attitude. Hope the movie shows some character growth beyond just survival. Excited for this one! 🤩

Raimi calling it "weird and wacky" has me sold! His horror-comedy style is unique. Doctor Strange was good but I'm glad he's returning to his roots. The cast looks solid too.
