See the first look at 'The Devil All the Time' with Bill Skarsgård, Tom Holland and more

Today Netflix released the first look at its A-list drama/thriller The Devil All the Time. EW exclusively revealed the imagines on the new film from filmmaker Antonio Campos (“Sinner”, Christine). The film is based on novelist Donald Ray Pollock’s 2011 saga with same title.

Campos says “it’s a multi-strand narrative set between the end of World War II and the beginning of America’s involvement in Vietnam in which a motley group of characters’ lives all intersect.”

If that description isn’t enough to draw you in, the star power surely will. The cast includes Bill Skarsgård, Riley Keough, Jason Clarke, Sebastian Stan, Haley Bennett, Mia Wasikowska, Eliza Scanlen, Robert Pattinson, and Tom Holland.

“I was really eager to work with Antonio because his previous films that I’ve seen are very raw,” says Holland. “I guess it was the challenge of doing a different accent, playing the rural kid, a period film, a new director. Everything ticked the boxes for me,” says Holland who plays the movie’s troubled character, Arvin Russell.

“Tom is a very sweet person and a very generous actor but he’s willing to go wherever he needs to go emotionally for the character,” says Campos. “He wanted to go where he had to go. Tom’s electric. He’s sort of sitting there doing nothing and is immensely watchable.”

Robert Pattinson, takes on the role of a preacher named Preston Teagardin, a character that Campos says is a mystery. “Rob prepared a bunch of ideas and you don’t know what you’re going to get but it’s all interesting,” says Campos. “The character coming to life — I saw that in front of me when we were on set.”

The film was written by Anthony Campos and his brother Paulo. “It was a hard book to adapt also because there was so much that we loved,” says the director. “I’m a big fan of southern gothic and noir and this was a perfect marriage of the two. Sometimes you might be adapting a piece and you think like, Well, there is a seed of a good idea here and I’ll just throw everything away and start from scratch. In this case it was like, we love everything!”

The Devil All the Time will premiere on Netflix on Sept. 16 2020. You can check out the first images from the film below.
