Modern relationships some we can clearly say are ‘different’ than ‘traditional’. In the U.S trailer for Aussie fantasy comedy starring Jai Courtney and Emily Browning, we can say this is absurd.

Dario Russo directs and next to Courtney and Browning, this also stars Olivia Colman and Sam Neil in one of his last films. The Fox is all about a landowner who finds out his fiancée is cheating and meets a shape-shifting fox offer a chance to transform his fiancée.

Emily Ries reviewed the film the BFI London Film Festival and enjoyed it very much. Emily described the film “It is what it is—which is simply a darkly comedic, surreal, and very Australian film“.

The rest of the cast includes Damon Herriman, Claudia Doumit, Frankie J. Holden, Heather Mitchell, Zlatko Burić and Kim Gyngell.

Synopsis | Nick (Jai Courtney, Dangerous Animals), affable heir to a wealthy rural landowner, discovers his fiancée, Kori (Emily Browning, Sucker Punch), is cheating on him and wants nothing more than to just fix the problem. One night, he captures a rogue Fox (voiced by Olivia Colman, Wicker), and she offers him a trade-off: if Nick lets her live, the Fox will help him save his relationship. All he has to do is push Kori into a magic hole with the power to change her into the perfect partner. Nick follows the Fox’s advice and the Kori who re-emerges seems to be everything he ever wanted – until her strange new quirks make him question his decision. 

The Fox is written and directed by Dario Russo in his feature debut, and produced by Kristina Ceyton, Samantha Jennings and Carly Maple of Causeway Films (The Babadook, Talk to Me).

Signature Entertainment will be releasing the film in the UK and Ireland in early 2027. If you live in the U.S The Fox will be released in theatres from 4th December.
