Ayo Edebiri's 'After the Hunt' Gets an Official Release Date in the US

Ayo Edebiri’s upcoming thriller After the Hunt, directed by Luca Guadagnino, finally has a release date! She stars alongside Julia Roberts and Andrew Garfield in the film, which will have a limited release in the United States on October 10 before expanding nationwide on October 17.

After the Hunt follows Alma Olsson (played by Roberts), a respected college professor who finds herself in turmoil when a gifted student (Edebiri) accuses one of her colleagues (Garfield) of misconduct. As a consequence, Olsson is forced to confront a long-buried secret from her own past—one that could ruin her career and reputation.

Besides Edebiri, Roberts, and Garfield, the film also features Michael Stuhlbarg, Chloë Sevigny, Lío Mehiel, and Thaddea Graham. It was filmed in London and at Cambridge University during July and August 2024.

Edebiri’s latest film, the thriller Opus with John Malkovich, recently premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival and is set for a theatrical release on March 14. She also has another movie coming up this year: the James L. Brooks comedy Ella McCay, starring Emma Mackey, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Woody Harrelson.
