- Bad apples has been given a global theatrical release date following its premiere at TIFF
- A new trailer confirmed the film would be in cinemas from 18 September for UK and US viewers
- The dark comedy is the English-language debut for Jonatan Etzler
Bad apples may have fallen under the radar after its TIFF debut, but the new dark comedy finally has a global release date.
The Saoirse Ronan-led film will be in UK and US cinemas from September 18, and we’ve got a brand new trailer to celebrate the new film’s theatrical release courtesy of Paramount Pictures.
Bad apples follows Maria, a teacher who becomes frustrated when her ten-year-old class is disrupted by an unruly student, Danny (Eddie Waller). When Maria accidentally kidnaps Danny and holds him hostage in her house, it sets off an unexpected chain of events.
Take a look at the trailer below.

Bad Apples looks like a perfect blend of comedy and drama and I can’t wait to watch it
It’s the kind of movie that comes to mind right away. We’ve got a seemingly ordinary protagonist in the form of a school teacher who then proceeds to make very questionable characters.
Plotted off Bad apples teases that Maria sees her class performance improve when Danny is “disappeared”, giving her a moral dilemma. Should she release him or keep him in her home where he won’t disturb the rest of her class?
Bad apples is based on the novel De Oönskade (The Unwanted) by the Swedish writer Rasmus Andersson, which is described as a satirical thriller. So I expect a lot of timely comments in this movie which will be widely available in theaters soon.
The film currently holds an 83% score on Rotten Tomatoes, with critics praising the story, performances and soundtrack. So it already promises something.
September 18th is a long wait, but luckily we’ve got plenty of recommendations to keep you entertained until then. If it’s horror you’re after, check out my roundup of the best horror movies to stream in July.
