The latest film from director M. Night Shyamalan, titled ‘Trap,’ carries an aura of mystery.

As with his previous works, we know the basic premise, but fans can expect unexpected twists from the creator of films like ‘The Sixth Sense,’ ‘Unbreakable,’ ‘Signs,‘ and ‘Split.‘ So, what do we know about ‘Trap,’ which has just been released in theaters?

The story follows a devoted father, Cooper, who takes his teenage daughter Riley to a concert by her favorite singer, Lady Raven. Unbeknownst to them, the event will be more than just listening to the biggest hits. Cooper learns that the police have discovered a wanted mass murderer, known as the Butcher, in the audience and have planned to capture him. The concert hall is set to become a trap for the dangerous criminal. Cooper grows anxious, but his worry seems to stem from something other than fear of the notorious killer. What is he truly afraid of?

Director and screenwriter Shyamalan describes his new film as a mix of the cult thriller ‘The Silence of the Lambs’ and a star-studded Taylor Swift concert. The previews suggest his comparison might not be far off. While the film is set at a pop concert, it is more likely to thrill fans of intense cinematic suspense and fear, elements that Shyamalan masterfully handles.


The famous singer Lady Raven is portrayed by Saleka Shyamalan, the director’s daughter, who is a musician in real life. She stars alongside the popular Josh Hartnett (‘The Faculty,’ ‘Halloween H20,’ ‘Oppenheimer’) who plays Cooper.

Ariel Donoghue (‘Wolf Like Me,’ ‘The Secret of Blue Waters’) plays Cooper’s daughter and avid fan of Lady Raven.

‘Trap’ promises to deliver a thrilling experience, combining Shyamalan’s knack for suspense with an unexpected concert setting, ensuring that audiences are kept on the edge of their seats.
