The final trailer for Nightmare Alley is here. The dark thriller is directed by Guillermo del Toro and it hits theaters on December 17.

　　The movie stars Bradley Cooper as Stanton Carlisle, a 1940s conman who claims to be a medium, making money working at a carnival. The trailer sees Stanton being given a lie-detector test by a group of men in a big house and intercuts scenes of him getting into trouble with a variety of characters, including Cate Blanchett's seductive psychiatrist. While the trailer delivers lots of compelling style and atmosphere, it's refreshing light on big plot details, and the movie should contain plenty of surprises when it arrives next month. Check out the trailer below:

　　Nightmare Alley has an impressive supporting cast that includes Willem Dafoe, Toni Collette, Rooney Mara, Richard Jenkins, Ron Perlman, Holt McCallany, Clifton Collins Jr., Tim Blake Nelson, Mary Steenburgen, and David Strathairn. You can check out the previous Nightmare Alley trailer here.

　　This is Del Toro's first movie as a director since 2017's The Shape of Water, which won the Oscar for Best Picture the following year. It's based on the novel by William Lindsay Gresham, which was previously adapted into a movie in 1947.

　　In related news, in September it was announced that Del Toro's long-in-development Netflix anthology horror show has a new title. The series will be named Guillermo Del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities. The filmmaker is also making a new stop-motion adaptation of Pinnochio for Netflix, with a voice-cast cast that includes Ewan McGregor, Tilda Swinton, Christoph Waltz, John Turturro, and Tim Blake Nelson.
