‘Disclaimer’ Trailer Finds Cate Blanchett’s Life Haunted!! Check It Out!!

Kevin Kline (Wild Wild West) is out to ruin Cate Blanchett’s (Nightmare Alley) life in the latest trailer for Apple TV+’s upcoming series, Disclaimer. The series hails from five-time Academy Award-winning director Alfonso Cuarón (Gravity) in what marks the helmer’s first return to small-screen productions in a decade and has his visionary stamp all over it. Dark, twisted, and filled with intrigue, the teaser gives audiences just a glimmer of what to expect when the series celebrates its two-episode premiere on October 11.

Stuck in what could easily be described as her own episode of Black Mirror, Blanchett’s Catherine Ravenscroft is a woman who has it all. The opening moments of the trailer see her accepting an award for her lengthy career in journalism, a celebration that is quickly cut short when a mysterious book comes across her desk. But this isn’t just any novel, as the contents of its pages spell out trouble for Catherine, with each chapter revealing more and more about the deep and dark secrets that she’s tried to keep hidden from the world. While Catherine may not have a clue about who’s behind the mysterious writing, audiences find out immediately that the author is Kline’s character, who has a personal vendetta against the successful woman. Although the trailer points to some of Catherine’s secrets, something tells us that it’s just the tip of the iceberg with a lot more to come from the seven-episode series.

Not only is the production backed by Cuarón, with Blanchett and Kline in the leading roles, but it also boasts a stellar ensemble that includes Sacha Baron Cohen (The Trial of the Chicago 7) as Catherine’s husband, Robert, and Kodi Smit-McPhee (The Power of the Dog) as the couple’s son, Nicholas, with performances from Lesley Manville (Phantom Thread), Louis Partridge (The Lost Girls), Leila George (Animal Kingdom) and Hoyeon (Squid Game).
