Netflix Drops 'The Guilty' Trailer Featuring Jake Gyllenhaal; Fans React

Netflix dropped the first trailer of "The Guilty" starring Jake Gyllenhaal on Twitter Sunday. The trailer consists of a chilling audio call with transcription text on a black screen.

In the trailer of director Antoine Fuqua's crime-thriller, Gyllenhaal could be heard answering a 911 call that gets disconnected after a brief conversation.

Although the trailer consists of no real footage shown, the exchange of words was more than enough to give a spine-chilling experience.

Gyllenhaal can be heard asking, "911, What is the address of your emergency?" to which the lady victim replies, "I don't know." Someone in the background of the victim yells, "Give me the phone" and Gyllenhaal asks, "Who's that?"

The actor went on to ask, "Is there someone with you?" and after receiving "yes" as an answer, he asked, "Does the person you're with know you called us?" to which the victim says, "no."

The victim further revealed that the person "put me in the back of the van and I can't see anything." As soon as the actor asks, "Have you been abducted?" the victim says yes and the call gets disconnected.

The 34-second long trailer ends up showing Gyllenhaal's face made with text, which is also known as a text portrait.

"Listen Carefully," Netflix wrote in the caption. "THE GUILTY, starring Jake Gyllenhaal and from director Antoine Fuqua. Coming to Netflix October 1."

Fans took to the comments section to share their reactions.

One of the fans noted that this movie is a remake of a Danish film, which was really good and now the fan hopes the remake to be great as well.

Another fan also said, "I hope they don't mess this one up. The original was gripping and brilliant."

One of the users noted that this trailer might be difficult for the deaf people to understand, "Wow this trailer is so inaccessible how are deaf people supposed to understand what's being said when the captions are all over the place and impossible to read."

A user recalled Halle Berry's 2013 movie, "The Call" and noted that the upcoming crime thriller reminds them of it. "The Guilty reminds me so much of The Call!" the user wrote.

Besides "The Guilty," Gyllenhaal will be seen in the mystery movie, "Ambulance," which is slated to release on Feb. 17, 2022.
