© 2025 - Neon
"Dear Mom & Dad, all the counselors are dead." Can you survive summer camp? Neon has revealed an official trailer for an indie horror comedy film titled Hell of a Summer, which first premiered at the 2023 Toronto Film Festival a few years ago. Hell of a Summer is the feature directorial debut of two young actors - Billy Bryk & Finn Wolfhard. They also both wrote and star in the film, in addition to directing it, a riff on summer camp slasher horror films. This time it's all the older counselors being killed off - and Jason ends up the only one left. As the counselors are getting Camp Pineway ready the night before the campers arrive, a masked killer begins killing the staff. Starring Fred Hechinger (from Thelma, Gladiator II) with Abby Quinn, Billy Bryk, Finn Wolfhard, Pardis Saremi, D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Krista Nazaire, and Matthew Finlan. This does look like bonkers horror comedy fun with an eccentric cast having a good time.
Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Billy Bryk & Finn Wolfhard's film Hell of a Summer, on YouTube:

Hell of a Summer follows 24-year-old camp counselor Jason Hochberg (Fred Hechinger), who arrives at Camp Pineway thinking his biggest problem is that he feels out of touch with his teenage co-workers. What he doesn’t know is that a masked killer is lurking on the campgrounds, brutally picking counselors off one by one. Hell of a Summer is co-written and co-directed by the two actors / filmmakers Billy Bryk & Finn Wolfhard, both making their directorial debut with this project. Produced by Michael Costigan, Jay Van Hoy, Finn Wolfhard, Billy Bryk, Fred Hechinger, Jason Bateman, Maren Olson, Trevor Groth. This initially premiered at the 2023 Toronto Film Festival a few years back. Neon will finally release Bryk & Wolfhard's Hell of a Summer in select US theaters starting on April 18th, 2025 this spring. Who wants to watch this?
Finn Wolfhard already has his post-“Stranger Things” project: directing.
The “Stranger Things” breakout star makes his directorial debut with ’80s-inspired horror-comedy film “Hell of a Summer,” which he cowrote with co-director Billy Bryk. The duo also appear in the film, which is led by “Nickel Boys” and “Gladiator II” actor Fred Hechinger.
The official synopsis reads: “‘Hell of a Summer’ centers on 24-year-old camp counselor Jason Hochberg (Hechinger), who arrives at Camp Pineway thinking his biggest problem is that he feels out of touch with his teenage co-workers. What he doesn’t know is that a masked killer is lurking on the campgrounds, brutally picking counselors off one by one.”

D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Abby Quinn, Pardis Saremi, Rosebud Baker, and Adam Pally also star. Hechinger, Wolfhard, and Bryk all produce the feature, along with Jason Bateman, Michael Costigan, and Jay Van Hoy. The film completed post-production in 2023 before landing at Neon for distribution.
Wolfhard previously told Entertainment Weekly that at age 20, he was met with skepticism from financiers over his ability to direct a feature.
“That’s what everyone said when we tried to get money for this movie,” Wolfhard said. “They’re like, ‘You’re a little young to be directing a movie.’ I’m like, ‘Yep.’”
He added, “Oh my God, they gave money to two kids to make a crazy [movie].’ Not to downplay it, I’m incredibly proud of it, but it was a crazy thing. We’d like to let the film speak for itself. I don’t think age defines filmmaking in any way. I think everyone has stories to tell, and if you have the chance to do it, then do it.”
Wolfhard will also reprise his role for the fifth and final season of “Stranger Things,” which will debut later this year. “Stranger Things” first aired in July 2016, with the show spanning four years in the town of Hawkins. The final season with include special screenings, in-person experiences, new limited-edition merchandise, and more to mark the conclusion of the viral show.
“Hell of a Summer” premieres April 18 in theaters from Neon. Check out the trailer below.

“Stranger Things” star Finn Wolfhard is the co-writer, co-director and star of the upcoming horror-comedy slasher Hell of a Summer, and the official trailer has been unleashed.
NEON will release Hell of a Summer in theaters on April 18, 2025.
Slash into the bloody official RED BAND trailer for Hell of a Summer below, which looks like a modern day tribute to the classic summer camp slasher movies from the 1980s.
Finn Wolfhard wrote and directed the upcoming movie alongside Billy Bryk (Ghostbusters: Afterlife), with both actors also starring in the film. The cast also includes Fred Hechinger (Fear Street 1994), as well as D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai (“Reservation Dogs”), Abby Quinn (“Mad About You”), and Pardis Saremi (“Career Opportunities in Murder and Mayhem”).
Hell of a Summer follows 24-year-old camp counselor Jason Hochberg (Hechinger), who arrives at Camp Pineway thinking his biggest problem is that he feels out of touch with his teenage co-workers. What he doesn’t know is that a masked killer is lurking on the campgrounds, brutally picking counselors off one by one.
Meagan Navarro wrote in her festival review for Bloody Disgusting, “Finn Wolfhard and Billy Bryk frame their slasher riff as a buddy comedy from the perspective of teens, aimed solely at teens. The directors’ acting backgrounds translate to an ensemble of entertaining and lively performances, though their debut is less effective in form and slasher thrills.”
“Wolfhard and Bryk evoke multiple movie references and lean into slasher conventions, but the focus is all about giving a voice to a specific demographic,” Meagan’s review continues. “On that front, it succeeds; Hell of a Summer isn’t really a slasher comedy so much as it is a representation of actual teens telling a story about transitioning into adulthood. That alone will win over its target audience and then some, but it’s clear that Wolfhard and Bryk are still at the earliest stages of honing their craft in form and technique. With a strong voice and a clear sense of ambition, though, the first-time filmmakers are ones to watch.”
Aggregate Films’ Jason Bateman and Michael Costigan, Parts & Labor’s Jay Van Hoy, Wolfhard, Bryk and Hechinger produced the film. 30West fully financed and is executive producing Hell of a Summer, in addition to co-representing the U.S. rights alongside CAA Media Finance.
The official trailer for Finn Wolfhard's Hell of a Summer has dropped. Hell of a Summer follows the counselors at Camp Pineway, who face off against a mysterious masked killer the night before the campers arrive. Known for his role as Mike Wheeler in Stranger Things, Wolfhard plays the lead character, Chris. Hell of a Summer also marks Wolfhard's directional debut. So far, the film has received divided reviews following its premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2023, and a 50% Rotten Tomatoes score.
The Hell of a Summer trailer from NEON teases the ensemble of camp counselors who find themselves facing the masked killer. The film features performances from Billy Bryk, who also directs alongside Wolfhard, with additional talent such as Fred Hechinger, D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Pardis Saremi, Abby Quinn, Daniel Gravelle, Julia Lalonde, and Matthew Finlan. Hell of a Summer will premiere in theaters on April 18. Check out the trailer below:

Hell Of A Summer Joins Other NEON Titles

At 22 years old, Wolfhard’s directorial debut with Hell of a Summer is a new development for his career, which has primarily focused on acting in popular titles like the aforementioned Stranger Things, It, and Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Additionally, Bryk’s involvement as co-director and co-writer further strengthens the film’s foundation. Previously, Byrk and Wolfhard worked together on titles such as When You Finish Saving the World and Saturday Night.
Premiering at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival, Hell of a Summer likely sought to gain some early buzz in addition to a distributor. Though the film has since been saddled with mixed reviews, Wolfhard's involvement could increase interest in the project, particularly since Stranger Things season 5 is slated for release later this year. The trailer offers a mix of campy thrills and Gen Z humor that fits in with today's horror landscape, positioning it as a familiar yet enticing new offer.

Hell of a Summer
Finn Wolfhard is taking a stab at directing — and is trying not to get stabbed himself in the new trailer for the horror-comedy film Hell of a Summer.
The trailer, released by Neon on Wednesday, shows the Stranger Things star and his friends enjoying their summer at camp, filled with campfires, lake days, Ouija boards and escaping a serial killer.
The film’s synopsis reads: “Hell of a Summer follows 24-year-old camp counselor Jason Hochberg, who arrives at Camp Pineway thinking his biggest problem is that he feels out of touch with his teenage co-workers. What he doesn’t know is that a masked killer is lurking on the campgrounds, brutally picking counselors off one by one.”

The feature, set to release in theaters on April 18, is written and directed by Wolfhard and Billy Bryk. The cast includes Fred Hechinger, Pardis Saremi, Abby Quinn and D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai.
The Hollywood Reporter‘s review teased that there may not be much mystery in this slasher film: “Unfortunately, the mystery of the killer fizzles out quicker than it should, even if the results are narratively satisfying. The twist is by far the most daring part of the narrative, really locking the characters into place for a fun third act. But despite the best efforts of the directors, Hell of a Summer just isn’t scary. Bryk and Wolfhard know how to tell jokes but struggle with establishing a truly creepy atmosphere.”
Wolfhard first rose to fame in 2016 with the widely popular series Stranger Things, and has since starred in horror films like It and The Turning. However, Stranger Things wrapped production on its fifth and final season in December and is set to premiere sometime this year.
Neon has released the official Hell of a Summer trailer for the upcoming slasher comedy movie, starring Fear Street’s Fred Hechinger and Stranger Things alum Finn Wolfhard. Following its world premiere at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival, the film is scheduled to arrive in theaters on April 18, 2025.

Forget Vecna...Well, let's not entirely forget Vecna. Stranger Things season 5 is still on the docket to debut this year. But before then, Finn Wolfhard must face a different demon.
Neon debuted the first Hell of a Summer trailer, showcasing the horror-comedy Wolfhard directed and wrote with his pal Billy Bryk (When You Finish Saving the World). He also stars in the movie with Bryk and Fred Hechinger of Gladiator 2 fame.
The premise of Hell of a Summer centers around Jason Hochberg (Hechinger), a 24-year-old who used to be a sort of boy wonder but is getting too old to be a camp counselor at Camp Pineway. He feels out of touch with his teenage co-workers, but he soon has much bigger problems to worry about when he realizes there's a masked killer picking off counselors one by one.
Finn Wolfhard says financiers thought he was too young to direct his slasher comedy
"It's a slasher movie where people start dying and everyone blames it on him," Wolfhard, who filmed Hell of a Summer when he was 20, previously commented to Entertainment Weekly, "and it's about the ensemble of teenagers trying to survive the night." D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai (Reservation Dogs), Abby Quinn (Mad About You), and Pardis Saremi (Career Opportunities in Murder & Mayhem) are also featured in the film.
Hell of a Summer has been around for a while. Wolfhard and Bryk shot it in the summer of 2022, and the film later had its world premiere at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival. "Every day on set we'd just start laughing. 'Oh my God, they gave money to two kids to make a crazy [movie],'" Wolfhard, who's now 22, told EW. "Not to downplay it, I'm incredibly proud of it, but it was a crazy thing."
Neon only picked up the film for distribution last August, and it's finally getting released this year. Wolfhard said it was "daunting" to step up as director at such a young age, but he ultimately feels age doesn't define filmmaking in any way.

"Since I was maybe 10 or 11, I've been watching tons of movies, I've been watching behind the scenes on movies, I would stay after work on set to watch all the directors and learn from them and how sets work," he said. "So I felt a little in my element at some points. At some points, I felt completely terrified and like I was flailing, but we had a great cast and crew. It was great. It was all the things, right? It was a small movie in the middle of nowhere in Canada, and it was incredible and hilarious. It was one of the best experiences of my life."

Production
Hell of a Summer was announced in July 2022 with Finn Wolfhard and Billy Bryk writing, directing and starring in the film, making it Bryk's directorial debut. Fred Hechinger joined the cast and also served as a producer with Aggregate Films' Jason Bateman and Michael Costigan, and Parts and Labor's Jay Van Hoy.[3][4] Wolfhard (who was 19 years old at the time) told Entertainment Weekly that he initially struggled to find a financer for the film, with potential investors often citing his age as the reason.[5] Inspiration for the film came from Edgar Wright's Shaun of the Dead (2004).[6]
Principal photography began in July 2022 in Ontario, Canada, and concluded that August.[3][7] By December, the film was in the editing process and in post-production by February 2023.[8][4]
Release
Hell of a Summer premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 10, 2023, where it was named second runner-up for the People's Choice Award for Midnight Madness.[9][10][1] In August 2024, Neon acquired the United States distribution rights.[11] The film is scheduled to be released in the United States on April 18, 2025.[12]
Reception
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 50% of 14 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 5/10.[13]
Valerie Complex of Deadline Hollywood gave the film a positive review. She praised Wolfhard and Bryk's direction, saying "they craft a distinct cinematic piece that is both a tribute to and a reinvention of the slasher genre". She wrote the film's lighting was an issue, which causes some of the nighttime scenes to be dimly lit. She ended her review writing that the film "is a delightful mix that strikes the right balance of '80s horror nostalgia and fresh, modern creativity. While it occasionally stumbles in its visual execution, the clever narrative and sharp societal insights ensure it’s a movie worth watching."[2]
Jourdain Searles from The Hollywood Reporter said of the film, "The biggest problem with Hell of a Summer is that there's really not much to say about it. Watching it is like being in a freshman film class in which the professor is asking everyone to come up with detailed notes on how to improve the film. But making a film is still an achievement in itself, paving the way for more polished work in the future. Maybe it's enough that Hell of a Summer leaves us eagerly wondering what Bryk and Wolfhard will make next."[14]

Finn Wolfhard (born December 23, 2002)[1] is a Canadian actor and musician. He is known for playing Mike Wheeler on the Netflix series Stranger Things (2016–present). He also played Richie Tozier in the horror film It (2017) and its sequel It Chapter Two (2019), and Trevor Spengler in the supernatural comedy Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021) and its sequel Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire (2024).
Wolfhard has also directed the comedy short film Night Shifts (2020) as well as the feature Hell of a Summer (2023). As a musician, he was the lead vocalist and guitarist for the rock band Calpurnia, and has been a member of The Aubreys since 2020.
Early life
Wolfhard was born on December 23, 2002, in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, to a family of French, German, and Jewish descent. He attended Catholic school.[2] His father, Eric Wolfhard, is a researcher on Indigenous land claims in Canada.[3] He has an older brother, actor Nick Wolfhard.[4]
Career
Wolfhard's first acting role was in the 2012 music video for the song "Retro Oceans" by Vancouver band Facts.[5][6] In 2014, he made his television debut as Zoran in the second season of the post-apocalyptic science fiction series The 100. The following year, he appeared as Jordie Pinsky in the series Supernatural.[7]
In 2016, Wolfhard began portraying Mike Wheeler in the Netflix series Stranger Things.[8] He auditioned for the role via video after seeing an open casting call.[9] Wolfhard, along with his castmates, won a SAG Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series.[10] He and co-stars Noah Schnapp, Gaten Matarazzo, and Caleb McLaughlin competed against one another in a 2017 episode of Spike's Lip Sync Battle.[11]
Wolfhard at the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival
In July 2017, Wolfhard co-directed his first music video with Josh Ovalle for the band Spendtime Palace's song "Sonora".[12] Wolfhard made his feature film debut playing Richie Tozier in the 2017 film adaptation of Stephen King's It.[13][14] The casting of Wolfhard in both Stranger Things and It, both set in the 1980s, had been a coincidence.[15] According to Wolfhard, he had been initially cast as Richie when Cary Fukunaga was attached as director and co-writer, but when Fukunaga left the project over creative differences, the role fell through which allowed him to pursue Stranger Things.[16] Once Andy Muschietti became attached to It, Wolfhard had to re-audition for the role of Richie.[17] In October 2017, Wolfhard parted ways with his former agency, APA, and fired former agent Tyler Grasham following allegations that Grasham had sexually assaulted aspiring young male actors.[18] Wolfhard himself had not been assaulted.[18] In January 2018, Wolfhard signed with Creative Artists Agency.[19] He played Tyler, an altruistic and thoughtful pizza delivery boy, in the 2018 Ken Marino-directed ensemble comedy film, Dog Days.[20]
In January 2019, Wolfhard starred in the Netflix animated series Carmen Sandiego as "Player", the title character's chief accomplice and friend.[21] In May, he made his modeling debut in Saint Laurent's Fall/Winter '19 campaign.[22] He reprised his role as young Richie in flashbacks for the sequel It Chapter Two (2019),[23] and co-starred in The Goldfinch (2019), the John Crowley-directed adaptation of Donna Tartt's novel, playing Young Boris Pavlikovsky, a Ukrainian student and troublemaker.[24] Wolfhard had not been Crowley's first choice as he wanted to cast an authentic Russian actor for Boris, but Wolfhard's near perfect Russian accent in his audition helped him get the role.[25] Wolfhard also provided the voice of Pugsley Addams in an animated remake of The Addams Family.[26] From 2017 to 2019, he was listed in Variety’s Hollywood Youth Impact Report.[27][28][29] In 2018 and 2019, The Hollywood Reporter named him as one of the top 30 stars under age 18.[30][31]
In January 2020, Wolfhard portrayed Miles in the supernatural horror film The Turning, an adaptation of Henry James' novella The Turn of the Screw,[32] and co-starred in the anthology film Omniboat: A Fast Boat Fantasia (2020).[33][34] Wolfhard then starred in the Jeremy Schaulin-Rioux–directed short film, Rules for Werewolves (2020), based on playwright and novelist Kirk Lynn's adapted screenplay from his debut novel,[35] which is set to become a feature-length film with Wolfhard attached to star.[35] He lent his voice to two Adult Swim productions: the animated special, Smiling Friends[36][37] and the animated series JJ Villard's Fairy Tales as Boypunzel, a gender-swapped version of Rapunzel. Wolfhard joined the Jason Reitman–directed comedy miniseries Home Movie: The Princess Bride, which raised money for World Central Kitchen,[38] and performed a live reading of The Princess Bride's script, as the Grandson, for a Democratic Party of Wisconsin charity event in September 2020.[39]
At the age of 17, Wolfhard made his directorial debut with the comedy short film, Night Shifts (2020).[40] He released the film on YouTube the following year.[41][42] Wolfhard co-starred in the Audible Original, When You Finish Saving the World (2020), written by Jesse Eisenberg.[43] He narrates Ziggy Katz, a 15-year-old boy recording audio sessions to a futuristic bot therapist.[44] The audiobook was adapted by Eisenberg into the comedy-drama film When You Finish Saving the World (2022), with Julianne Moore and Wolfhard starring as mother and son.[45] In July 2020, it was announced that Wolfhard and his brother Nick would be headlining the voice cast of sci-fi animated series NEW-GEN, playing twin brothers.[46] Wolfhard was included in Forbes 30 Under 30 class of 2020 in the field of Hollywood and entertainment.[47]
Wolfhard co-starred with Carrie Coon in Jason Reitman's Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021), playing the son of Coon's single mother.[48][49][50] He was cast alongside Willem Dafoe, Emily Watson, and Helena Zengel in A24's fantasy epic The Legend of Ochi, directed by Isaiah Saxon.[51] In November 2021, he announced that he is working on directing a feature-length film, Hell of a Summer.[52][53] Wolfhard also joined Guillermo del Toro's stop-motion animated musical film Pinocchio (2022).[54]
In 2023, Wolfhard and his friend and frequent collaborator Billy Bryk released the theatrical feature film Hell of a Summer, which they co-directed, co-wrote and co-starred in.[55] The film debuted at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival,[56] where it was named second runner-up for the People's Choice Award for Midnight Madness.[57] That same year, he voiced a younger version of the titular character in Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, released in November.
Music
Wolfhard was the lead vocalist, rhythm guitarist and songwriter for Vancouver-based rock band Calpurnia, until the band dissolved in November 2019.[58] A few weeks later, it was announced that Wolfhard's new band, The Aubreys, with Calpurnia drummer Malcolm Craig, would debut on the soundtrack of his film, The Turning (2020).[59] The Aubreys released their single, "Loved One" on March 10, 2020,[60] and their debut EP, Soda & Pie, through AWAL, on March 13, 2020.[61] Their next single, "Smoke Bomb" was released on August 17, 2020.[62] The Aubreys' first collaboration single with Lunar Vacation, "No Offerings" was released on January 12, 2021.[63] Their second single of 2021, "Sand in My Bed" was released on February 14.[64]
The Aubreys released their single "Karaoke Alone" on September 10, 2021, from the group's debut studio LP, Karaoke Alone, which was released on November 5, 2021. [65]
Advocacy
Wolfhard has been involved in advocacy for autism and indigenous children.[66]
In May 2017, Wolfhard hosted "Strange 80s," a benefit concert to raise funds for Sweet Relief, an organization that helps struggling musicians in need of medical care. He also performed three tracks with his former band Calpurnia at the event.[67] For his work with Sweet Relief, he received an award at the 2017 Television Industry Advocacy Awards.[68][69]
