“Locked” Set for Indian Theatrical Release on March 21 – A Thrilling Battle of Wits Between Bill Skarsgård and Anthony Hopkins

“A fight to the death!” – Director David Yarovesky teases an electrifying thriller as two of Hollywood’s most iconic villains go head-to-head.

Mumbai, March 13: Indian audiences are in for a high-octane thriller as “Locked” gears up for its theatrical release on March 21. Starring Bill Skarsgård and Academy Award-winner Anthony Hopkins, the film promises edge-of-the-seat suspense with a gripping battle of survival.

A Psychological Face-Off Between Legends

Anthony Hopkins, known for his chilling portrayal of Hannibal Lecter, returns to familiar villainous territory, this time as a ruthless vigilante. Opposite him, Bill Skarsgård—famed for his terrifying role as Pennywise in IT—plays a petty thief trapped in a deadly mind game.

Sharing his experience of working on the project, director David Yarovesky expressed his excitement, saying:

“Working with Bill and Anthony was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. They are two of the greatest living actors, each having brought to life some of the most iconic villains of all time. Now, they’re going head-to-head in a battle of wits—a fight to the death! Together, they are electric! I’m deeply grateful to both of them, as well as to Sam Raimi, for being such incredible creative partners and for trusting me to steer the ship.”

Plot: A Deadly Game of Cat and Mouse

“Locked” delivers a pulse-pounding thriller with a unique premise:

“Bill Skarsgård plays Eddie, a petty thief who breaks into a state-of-the-art luxury SUV, only to realize he has walked straight into a meticulously orchestrated trap. The vehicle’s owner—played by Anthony Hopkins—reveals himself as a self-proclaimed vigilante delivering his own twisted brand of justice. Seizing remote control, he transforms the car into a deadly prison where every decision is a matter of life and death. With no means of escape, Eddie must fight to survive in a ride where freedom is an illusion, survival is a nightmare, and justice shifts into high gear.”

With nail-biting tension, psychological warfare, and a powerhouse cast, “Locked” is all set to leave audiences at the edge of their seats when it hits Indian theatres on March 21.
