Netflix has dropped the tense and gripping official trailer for Night Always Comes, an upcoming crime thriller based on the best-selling novel by Willy Vlautin. Directed by Benjamin Caron (Andor, Sharper), the film stars Vanessa Kirby in a career-defining role as Lynette, a woman pushed to her limits during one harrowing night in Portland, Oregon. The film is set to release globally on August 15, 2025.
Set against the backdrop of a rapidly gentrifying Portland, Night Always Comes tells the story of Lynette, who faces eviction and must raise $25,000 in under 24 hours to save her home and provide for her developmentally disabled brother, played by Zack Gottsagen. With time running out, Lynette is forced to confront her criminal past and navigate a web of danger, betrayal, and moral ambiguity. The trailer teases high-stakes tension, fast-paced action, and a haunting emotional core that distinguishes the film from traditional thrillers.
The ensemble cast includes Jennifer Jason Leigh, Stephan James, Randall Park, Julia Fox, Michael Kelly, and Eli Roth, each adding complexity to the urban nightscape Lynette must survive. The screenplay, penned by Sarah Conradt, transforms Vlautin’s stark, emotionally charged novel into a suspenseful and visually atmospheric experience, packed with urgency and raw humanity.
Night Always Comes is positioned as a gritty, emotionally resonant thriller that explores themes of housing insecurity, class struggle, and redemption. With its grounded storytelling and powerhouse performances—especially from Kirby in the lead—Netflix is setting up the film to be one of its major late-summer releases. Expect a heart-pounding, character-driven drama that pushes the limits of what one night—and one woman—can endure.
