Big Game Trailer Starring Samuel L. Jackson Has Landed

Back in 2010, Finnish director Jalmari Helander brought the world a creepy Christmas present in the form of feral Santa Claus tale Rare Exports. For his next trick, he’s looking to throw a nod and a wink towards big ‘80s muscle movies with an action comedy called Big Game.

Jackson stars as the President Of The United States, who is stranded in the Finnish mountains when terrorists blast Air Force One from the sky and he’s parachuted to relative safety in an escape capsule. Struggling to survive in the harsh terrain he meets 13-year-old Oskari (Tommila), who is out there as part of a coming-of-age ritual. They’ll have to team up when the baddies targeting the Prez decide to hunt him down…



With Samuel L. Jackson, Jim Broadbent, Ray Stevenson, Felicity Huffman, Ted Levine, Victor Garber and Rare Exports’ Onni Tommila among the cast, the film appears to be a blend of Escape From New York and The Most Dangerous Game.

Helander’s latest received some mixed reviews from the Toronto Film Festival and the trailer certainly seems to give off a hint of cheese, but it could still be fun. Big Game should be landing on our screens on May 8.
