Star Trek: Discovery star Sara Mitich and The Expanse's George Tchortov star in a new thriller titled Control and the first trailer has just dropped.

As we see in the trailer, Mitich plays Eileen who has to complete a number of "tasks" in a control room or her daughter Eve will die. Soon her husband Roger, played by Tchortov, is thrown into the mix as she must complete tasks to save him too.

The trailer begins as Eileen wakes up cuffed and tied to a chair and is commanded to complete an increasingly difficult set of tasks which coincide with her growing powers.

Eileen must attempt to save her family and find a way out of the boxy prison where an unknown voice commands her to complete said tasks.

As the trailer progresses, it is clear that Eileen has telekinetic powers that she must utilise in this sci-fi thriller from director James Marks. At one point she has to use her powers to save her husband as he drowns in a tank of sand before her eyes.

What to Read Next

If the trailer is anything to go by, Control looks like it will be an intense and terrifying ride. You'll be able to check it out when it's released on digital platforms in the UK on September 26.
