Gamesradar reports that a new trailer for The Dreadful reunites Game of Thrones alumni Kit Harington and Sophie Turner in a medieval-set folk horror film.

The film follows Turner as Anne, who struggles to survive while waiting for her husband to return from war; his apparent death triggers events that pit Anne and her mother-in-law Morwen against a strange, cursed knight in armor. Lionsgate's official description says the project reunites Turner and Harington and features Academy Award-winning Marcia Gay Harden, calling it an "unnerving Gothic tale of horror."

The Dreadful is set in a more grounded version of medieval England rather than a fantasy world, and the trailer suggests a fairy-tale tone similar to The Green Knight. The Dreadful (2026) hits theaters and digital on February 20.
