‘The Belko Experiment’ Trailer: Things Get A Little Messy At The Office

Below, watch The Belko Experiment trailer.
Gunn has written some dark comedies before, and The Belko Experiment looks like some of his darkest material yet. Some co-workers, even friends, don’t seem like they’ll stay peaceful for long, including a character played by actor/filmmaker Tony Goldyn. Based on the other trailers, we probably shouldn’t expect too many heroes in McLean’s film, which co-stars 10 Cloverfield Lane’s John Gallagher Jr. as well as Michael Rooker, Sean Gunn, Adria Arjona, John C. McGinley, David Dastmalchian, Melonie Diaz, and Josh Brener.
Here’s The Belko Experiment trailer, featuring the wonderful Orion logo:
Whatever John C. McGinley’s character’s motivation is, he looks like somebody you wouldn’t want to bump into on this particular day at the office. For starters, he’s John C. McGinley. On top of that, he’s John C. McGinley, an actor who has strength, dominance, and intelligence written all over him. He’s also incredibly funny, which is just another reason to look forward to seeing him chew on Gunn’s writing.
Our own Angie Han saw The Belko Experience when it premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last year and said that while it’s mostly what you’d expected from the premise, it’s also very entertaining:
She added John C. McGinley — the one and only John C. McGinley — is well cast as an alpha dog type.
Here’s the official synopsis:
In a twisted social experiment, a group of 80 Americans are locked in their high-rise corporate office in Bogata, Colombia and ordered by an unknown voice coming from the company’s intercom system to participate in a deadly game of kill or be killed.
On March 17, it’s kill or be killed. #BelkoExperiment
The Belko Experiment opens in theaters March 17th.
