Julia Ducournau’s ‘Alpha’ Sets March Release Date Ahead of Trailer’s Arrival Next Week

The newly rated “R” Alpha, French filmmaker Julia Ducournau’s (Raw, Titane) latest, has finally set a release date ahead of the new trailer arriving next week.

Alpha releases in theaters on March 27, 2026.

In the film, “Alpha, a troubled 13-year-old lives with her single mom. Their world collapses the day she returns from school with a tattoo on her arm.”

Golshifteh Farahani (The Patience Stone) and Tahar Rahim (“The Serpent”) star.

“Alpha is Julia’s most personal, profound work yet, and we are looking forward to a global audience discovering the story with as much excitement as we did,“ FilmNation Entertainment and Charades said in a statement. “We can’t wait to bring the film to market in Cannes and to launch sales together for the first time and collaborate in this way.“

“Alpha is a new page in Julia Ducournau’s corpus that is both very consistent with the previous ones and entirely new in its tone,“ the producers said. “To match an exceptional project, it was necessary to transcend conventions, as evidenced by the exceptional combination of producers on one hand and international sales companies on the other.“

Ducournau’s new feature made its premiere earlier this year at the Cannes Film Festival, where it was acquired by NEON.

Look for the trailer to arrive next week.
