Steven Soderbergh’s Kimi trailer features a spin on The Conversation

Steven Soderbergh is back with a new thriller, Kimi, that stars Zoë Kravitz. Soderbergh teamed with Spider-Man and Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp for the New Line film.

The film’s title refers to a fictitious Alexa/Siri-like voice-activated digital assistant called KIMI. It hears everything you say all the time, recording everything for a Big Brother-like corporation. Kravitz plays Angela Childs, a voice stream interpreter who overhears a murder on a recording she was analyzing. Angela is shaken after reaching out to her colleagues. Why are her employers resistant to her trying to bring this to the authorities’ attention?

Soderbergh told IGN that Francis Ford Coppola’s The Conversation and Hitchcock’s Rear Window influenced his new film. Both of those are brilliant movies and I must say, I like the look of things in this new trailer.

In addition to Zoë Kravitz, the cast includes Jaime Camil, Erika Christensen, Derek DelGaudio, Robin Givens, Charles Halford, Devin Retray, Jacob Vargas, and Rita Wilson.

Kimi debuts exclusively on HBO Max on February 10.
