If you love Mads Mikkelsen’s take on Hannibal in the new NBC series of the same name, here’s a movie with him as lead that you might want to keep an eye out for: “The Hunt,” which recently got a brand new trailer.

Directed by Thomas Vinterberg, who received wide critical acclaim for his “Festen” (“The Celebration”), “The Hunt” delves into the events that unfold after one single, apparently insignificant lie.

“Following a recently divorced teacher fighting for custody of his young son, Lucas struggles with life after the split, but he finds a new love and get some positive news about the guardianship of his child,” a brief synopsis of the film says.

“However, when a young child makes a vicious accusation against him, everything goes awry sending his life into mayhem,” adds the same.

“The Hunt” will be out on July 12, so make sure you check it out if you like the trailer above.
