Kravitz unveiled the first trailer for Blink Twice, her directorial debut, on Tuesday (Wednesday in Australia) and it's every bit as creepy as the title sounds.

"So, everybody's dead," Tatum says at the start of the trailer for the psychological thriller. "Let's start from the beginning."

Tatum, who plays a tech billionaire, is seen in the trailer charming actress Naomi Ackie's character Frida and her friend (Alia Shawkat) at a swanky party.

It's not long before the duo score an invite to his private island, where the goal seems to be spending every moment partying, fine dining and basking in the sun. Until it's not.

"There's something weird going on here," says a character played by Christian Slater, who also stars in the film.

Indeed, there is. Frida's friend seemingly goes missing, people forget chunks of time and things appear to get violent and bloody.

According to an official synopsis, Frida has to "uncover the truth if she wants to make it out of this party alive."

Simon Rex, Adria Arjona, Haley Joel Osment, Kyle MacLachlan and Geena Davis also star.

Kravitz and Tatum have been romantically linked since 2021 after they reportedly first met when the actress reached out to cast Tatum in her directorial debut film Blink Twice.

For her March 2022 Elle cover, Kravitz addressed her romance with Tatum for the first time by speaking about his upcoming role in her film that was then called Pussy Island.

"Looking at his work and hearing him speak about Magic Mike and the live show, I'm like, I think he's a feminist. You need to be so far from who this is, where it's not scary," she said.

"And I don't think we've ever seen him play someone dark. I'm excited to see him do that," she added.

In March 2024, months after they reportedly became engaged in October, Tatum joined Kravitz to support her father Lenny Kravitz at his Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony.

Blink Twice will premiere in Australian cinemas on August 22.
