This looks like it’s going to be a tonne of fun! And the start of a new shared cinematic universe! And you all know we love those here at FTN HQ.
When a rogue squad of genetically engineered super soldiers break loose in the desert, a badass Army sniper must unleash hell to protect her young daughter.
Tidbit:
At SDCC 2026, it was revealed that Onslaught takes place in the same town as Wingard’s The Guest, which also starred Dan Stevens as a US soldier visiting the home of a young man who died on tour with him – it’s a cracker of a watch. Stevens is back in Onslaught but is almost unrecognisable as a mad scientist.
Welcome to the Wingard-Verse.
From director Adam Wingard, director of The Guest, You’re Next and Godzilla X Kong: Supernova, comes Onslaught.
Starring Adria Arjona, Alex Pereira, Drew Starkey, Rebecca Hall, Reginald VelJohnson, Michael Biehn, Eric Wareheim and Dan Stevens.
Onslaught hits cinemas on September 4th.

Marc
Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
