Zoë Kravitz will make her feature directorial debut this year with Blink Twice, a film about a young waitress in Los Angeles, who has her eye on tech entrepreneur Slater King.

Amazon MGM Studios has released the official trailer for the film which begins by setting the blissful paradise of opulence scene before twisting into a suspense-filled horror.

Naomi Ackie and Channing Tatum lead the cast which features Christian Slater, Simon Rex, Adria Arjona, Kyle MacLachlan, and Haley Joel Osment, with Geena Davis and Alia Shawkat.

The official synopsis reads: When tech billionaire Slater King (Channing Tatum) meets cocktail waitress Frida (Naomi Ackie) at his fundraising gala, sparks fly. He invites her to join him and his friends on a dream vacation on his private island. It's paradise. Wild nights blend into sun soaked days and everyone's having a great time. No one wants this trip to end, but as strange things start to happen, Frida begins to question her reality. There is something wrong with this place. She'll have to uncover the truth if she wants to make it out of this party alive.

Kravitz co-wrote the screenplay with E.T. Feigenbaum and produced the film alongside Bruce Cohen, Tiffany Persons, Garret Levitz and Channing Tatum.

Stacy Perskie, Jordan Harkins and Vania Schlogel serve as executive producers.

Blink Twice is heading for a theatrical release this summer on August 23.
