Here’s a trailer for Grant Singer’s “Reptile.” The film stars Benicio del Toro as a New England detective who works to solve the murder of a real estate agent, and as a result of the case experiences doubts about himself. Justin Timberlake and Alicia Silverstone co-star. This is Singer’s directorial debut, his background is music videos. Based on the trailer, the style and look Singer goes for here can only be described as Fincher-esque — especially the desaturated yellow look of the whole thing. “Reptile” is set to have its world premiere next month at TIFF and will stream via Netflix on October 6th.
The sequel will arrive more than 20 years after the original and nearly two decades after “National Treasure: Book of Secrets,” with Turteltaub returning to direct.
