Maiara Walsh’s Erotic Thriller Movie Bight Pushes Boundaries in Exclusive Trailer

ComingSoon is debuting an exclusive trailer for Bight, the upcoming erotic thriller movie from actress-turned-filmmaker Maiara Walsh (Cory in the House, Good Trouble). The trailer was created by White Room, along with producer and visual effects artist Yori X. This comes after Scatena & Rosner (S&R Films) officially acquired the North American distribution rights to the movie’s release.

“The film follows Atticus, a man who has lost his way after abandoning his dreams of becoming an artist, and his wife, Charlie, a woman struggling to regain her sense of self and security following a miscarriage. One night, Atticus and Charlie visit close friends Sebastian, a successful avant-garde erotic photographer, and his wife Naomi, a seductress painter with a dark secret, to celebrate Sebastian’s latest art exhibition, an immersive dive into the intricate and sensual world of Shibari,” reads the official synopsis. “Throughout the evening, their turbulent lives will push them to succumb to dark temptations and provocative explorations of an open relationship, all leading toward a devastating fallout.”

When is the release date for Bight?

Bight is scheduled to make its debut on February 10, 2025, just in time for Valentine’s Day. The ensemble cast includes Walsh, Cameron Cowperthwaite (Fallout, Dahmer), Mark Hapka (23 Blast, Hot Take: The Depp/Heard Trial), and Maya Stojan (Castle, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.).

“We’re drawn to stories that push boundaries, and Bight does exactly that”, S&R Films co-founder Jordan Rosner said in a statement. “It’s a fearless exploration of intimacy, control, and the blurred lines between art and obsession. We’re excited to share this bold vision with audiences who crave thought-provoking storytelling.”

The movie is directed by Walsh, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Cowperthwaite. This marks Walsh’s feature directorial debut. It is produced by Mark Hapka for White Room banner, Cowperthwaite for 80 Proof Pictures, Walsh for Inspired Ink Productions, Stephen Moffat, and Yori X. The film was executive produced by Emilio Nunez.

Cowperthwaite added, “I’m so proud to be teamed up with such an incredible team at S&R. This is a very bold indie film that tackles explicit material and really dares the viewer to come along for the ride. It’s a potent, thrilling, captivating, and at times challenging watch, and Gato, Jordan, and Zach have created the perfect path for a movie like ours to find an audience that we feel will absolutely love every minute of it.”

“Bight was born out of instinct”, Hapka said. “In a time when stories move faster than people can feel them, we needed to make something honest, uncomfortable, and alive. We explore how the darker, more fragile sides of desire and trust fracture under pressure through the kind of patient, character-driven storytelling that rarely gets made anymore. Everyone who touched this film poured something real into it, and seeing it find its way into the world with S&R feels like proof that independent filmmaking still has the power to cut through the noise.”
