Studiocanal and A24 have dropped the first official trailer for How to Make a Killing, a darkly comedic thriller about inheritance, family, and deadly ambition. The film follows Becket Redfellow (Glen Powell), a blue-collar man disowned at birth by his fabulously wealthy family, who will stop at nothing to claim the fortune that’s rightfully his—even if it means eliminating relatives along the way.
The remake of the 1949 British black comedy Kind Hearts and Coronets sees Becket attempting to remove seven relatives from his path, instead of eight in the original, setting up a twisted mix of humor and suspense. The film also stars Margaret Qualley, Jessica Henwick, Bill Camp, Zach Woods, Topher Grace, and Ed Harris, bringing a mix of wit, charm, and menace to the ensemble.
Written and directed by John Patton Ford, the movie blends sharp satire with clever plotting, turning a tale of greed and family rivalry into a darkly funny cinematic experience. The trailer teases a mix of clever schemes, darkly comic murders, and an audacious protagonist whose ambition knows no bounds.
How to Make a Killing is slated for a February 20th, 2026 release, and fans of black comedy thrillers can expect a sharp, stylish, and suspenseful ride that pays homage to its classic predecessor while delivering a modern twist.
