Wicker" Trailer (2026)

The trailer for 'Wicker' reveals the outlines of a British comedy directed by Alex Huston Fischer that leans into absurdist and situational humour. The film, a UK production, builds its tone around the misunderstandings of marriage, social pressure, and a gallery of characters who express themselves with a frankness bordering on the absurd.

The trailer opens with a quaint, rural atmosphere in which a woman is advised that "there's no shame in spending her remaining days alone", before she promptly demands that a husband be found for her within a month. What follows is a chain of scenes in which the newcomer, described by the locals as "strong as a tree and just as hard", completely upends the dynamic of the community. The dialogue blends double entendre with physical comedy: a bed that "has broken again", a mother-in-law with her own particular methods, and a community of wives who observe the new husband with growing interest. The trailer keeps most of the plot under wraps, but makes it clear that the central conflict revolves around forced cohabitation and expectations surrounding marriage.

The cast brings together Alexander Skarsgård in the title role of the husband, alongside Olivia Colman, Elizabeth Debicki, and Peter Dinklage. The expected release year is 2026.
