June 25 (UPI) -- A24 is teasing the new film Heretic.

The studio shared a trailer for the movie Tuesday featuring Hugh Grant, Chloe East and Sophie Thatcher.

Heretic is written and directed by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, the co-writers of A Quiet Place.

Grant plays Mr. Reed, a man who takes two young Mormon missionaries (East, Thatcher) hostage in his home and tests their faith with a twisted game.

"Two young missionaries are forced to prove their faith when they knock on the wrong door and are greeted by a diabolical Mr. Reed, becoming ensnared in his deadly game of cat-and-mouse," an official synopsis reads.
