“You’re not just playing for money anymore!” Paramount Movies has revealed an official trailer for an indie thriller called The Highest Stakes, set around a high stakes poker game. This is getting dropped direct-to-VOD in April if anyone is curious to find out where it goes. Almost like an Escape Room combined with a poker night – which seems unsettling. Five strangers are invited into a New Orleans hotel for a high-stakes poker game. What begins as a contest for fortune quickly spirals into something very dangerous. As tensions rise & secrets surface, the players realize the stakes aren’t just about money—they’re about survival. In a night of escalating peril, trust becomes a weapon, and every last choice could seal their fate. Starring Seth Green, Kevin Dillon, Charlie Weber, Dylan Walsh, Eloise Lovell Anderson, Chloe Fox, and Dan Bucatinsky. Despite an intriguing concept, this looks like a low-stakes junk movie to skip without worries.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Tony Dean Smith’s film The Highest Stakes, from YouTube:
