Cold Storage Trailer Debuts with Liam Neeson and Joe Keery

The first trailer for the upcoming sci-fi horror film Cold Storage has been unveiled, showcasing an action-packed story led by Liam Neeson, Stranger Things alum Joe Keery, and Barbarian star Georgina Campbell. The film’s official release date has been set for February 13, 2026, offering a unique Valentine’s Day cinematic experience.

Film Synopsis and Plot Details

Based on the 2019 novel by Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp, Cold Storage follows two young employees at a self-storage facility and a retired bioterror operative. Their nightshift turns into a survival mission when a parasitic, mutating fungus escapes from deep cold storage. The official synopsis states their goal is to “survive the wildest night shift ever to save humanity from extinction” as the organism rapidly spreads.

Creative Team and Star-Studded Cast

Directed by Jonny Campbell (Westworld), the film is produced by Koepp and Gavin Polone (Zombieland). Koepp has described the project as “scary, funny, exhilarating, surprising, and riotously entertaining,” while Campbell praised its “mischievously witty tone.” The cast also includes Sosie Bacon, Vanessa Redgrave, Lesley Manville, Darrell D’Silva, and Daniel Rigby. The film has been rated R for “violent content, gore, and language.”

Release Strategy and Box Office Prospects

Samuel Goldwyn Films will release Cold Storage in theaters on February 13, 2026, the same date as Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights adaptation. The film’s blend of action and comedy, coupled with the star power of Neeson—whose recent films like The Naked Gun reboot have performed well—positions it as a strong contender for the box office.
