Netflix's new mystery thriller movie looks a mind-twisting ride that'll keep you guessing — watch the first trailer now
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. I wouldn't say I've ever been particularly claustrophobic, but after watching Netflix's first trailer for the German thriller 'Brick,' I can definitely feel the nightmare of confinement setting in. The premise is simple but intriguing: a couple wakes up to find their apartment building completely encased by an impenetrable brick wall that appeared overnight. The plot immediately reminded me of 'The Platform' and '10 Cloverfield Lane,' which are two of my favorite claustrophobic thrillers. So, it's no surprise this one went straight onto my summer watchlist. 'Brick' will land on Netflix on July 10, 2025, and judging by the first trailer, it looks like a mystery thriller viewers will devour (and maybe come to fear enclosed spaces a little more). The trailer opens with Olivia (Ruby O. Fee) telling her partner, Tim (Matthias Schweighöfer), that she's leaving him and not coming back. But as she tries to walk out of the apartment, she's met with a brick wall. Confused, they soon realize their entire building is surrounded by this strange structure. Like anyone would, they start kicking and throwing themselves against it, but it doesn't budge. The water doesn't work, there's no cell reception and even drilling through the brick gets them nowhere. Instead, they manage to break through a plastered wall and find their neighbor on the other side just as panicked as they are. You can feel the tension start to rise as Tim, Olivia, and the rest of the building's residents try to figure out what's happening and how to escape. But as the fear and claustrophobia set in, it's clear the real danger might be what's happening inside, not just outside. The trailer might reveal a bit more than it should, so the movie will need to pull off a truly unexpected twist to keep the story engaging and leave a lasting impact. Along with the trailer and release date, Netflix's synopsis reads: 'Tim and Olivia awake trapped in their apartment behind an impenetrable, futuristic wall which has materialized overnight … and they are not alone. The entire building and its residents seem to be enclosed. 'What happened? Who built that wall and why? Without any chance of outside help, they must band together to find a way out. Can they solve the mystery of the wall in time — and survive?' Nearly four years after starring together in 'Army of Thieves' (the prequel to 'Army of the Dead'), real-life couple Matthias Schweighöfer and Ruby O. Fee reunite for another Netflix project with 'Brick,' this time in a much darker, more suspenseful setting. 'Brick' is directed by Philip Koch and features a strong ensemble cast alongside Fee and Schweighöfer, including Frederick Lau, Salber Lee Williams, Murathan Muslu, Axel Werner, Sira-Anna Faal, and Alexander Beyer. Koch has a real knack for creating tense, atmospheric stories that feel just a little off-kilter in the best way, like he did with 'Tribes of Europa.' With 'Brick,' he seems to be bringing that same energy, turning a simple, contained setting into something eerie and unpredictable. There's a good chance this won't just be a survival thriller, as it looks to explore how people unravel under pressure. Given his background in sci-fi and psychological thrillers, Koch knows how to make familiar spaces feel strange and claustrophobic. If this new movie leans into that, it could end up being something really memorable. This is very much a claustrophobic thriller and one that will probably have you guessing until the very end. The trailer suggests a story that leans heavily into psychological pressure, exploring what happens to people when their world suddenly shrinks and the rules no longer make sense. Plus, it's perfect for anyone who enjoys a good single-location thriller. Visually, though, it actually looks pretty sharp and stylized, and I'm curious to see how it balances dread and mystery in the right way. Thankfully, we don't have long to wait to see the mystery unfold. If you're drawn to stories that thrive on slow-building tension, this one looks like it'll have you hooked from the first minute. 'Brick' starts streaming on Netflix from July 10. In the meantime, see what got added to Netflix in June 2025.

T.J. McConnell's dad crashes son's postgame interview: 'He's a warrior… it doesn't matter how tall you are'
Once again T.J. McConnell proved a catalyst for the Indiana Pacers. The backup point guard scored 12 points in the Pacers' 108-91 Game 6 win of the NBA Finals and got the Gainbridge Fieldhouse crowd into a frenzy with his hustle plays. He added nine rebounds, six assists and four steals as the Pacers forced a decisive Game 7 back in Oklahoma City on Sunday night. In his postgame interview on NBA TV, McConnell's dad, Tim McConnell — one of Western Pennsylvania's most-accomplished high school basketball coaches — crashed the party. Tim was particularly tickled at the chance to talk with Isiah Thomas, admitting he was a "big fan." 'I'll tell you right now, he's a warrior… it doesn't matter how tall you are," Tim said of his son, who is listed at 6-1. 'What do you think of his performance tonight?' NBA TV's Jared Greenberg asked. 'Excellent. Just disappointed he missed two foul shots in the beginning," Tim said. "I kept saying, 'Man, I wish he had made those two foul shots, but he recovered, and we won the game, so I could forget about the foul shots. "Anything can happen in Game 7. We're going to OKC to try and win a world championship, and my son is a part of it, and I can't believe that.' McConnell's sister Megan is on the Phoenix Mercury, which led to a follow-up question from Isiah: "Why were you harder on him and softer on your daughter?' 'He says that, that's a lie,' Tim said. 'It's true,' T.J. responded. 'My daughter was an undefeated state championship. He lost in the state championship. We lost two games. So, undefeated…," Tim said with a shrug. "... He played great, but we didn't win it… The truth hurts… And now she's with the Mercury and I couldn't be more proud to say, 'I have a son in the NBA and I have a daughter in the WNBA. This is a dream come true. And I'm going to OKC for my son to play in a championship game and win the world championship."

Notre Dame is among the top two recruiting classes, according to one publication
Notre Dame is among the top two recruiting classes, according to one publication The Fighting Irish are knotted with USC. At least one outlet claims that Notre Dame has the best recruiting class for 2026. On3 Sports says that the Fighting Irish, according to their metrics, are number one. It's a bit tricky, since Blue & Gold uses an industry ranking for its articles, but On3's internal ranking has the Irish at number one, even if that's not the case for the industry ranking. The difference is half a point -- the industry ranking has USC over the Irish by a half-point, but On3's own ranking has them tied, with an unknown tiebreaker putting Notre Dame on top. In both rankings, the top five are rounded out by LSU, Georgia and Ohio State. Scoring semantics aside, it's exciting to think that the Irish, coming off a berth in the national championship game, have one of the top two recruiting classes in the country.
