Carry-On, a new Netflix thriller, is about to come with promises to embark on a suspense with a chaos scale. And we got some glimpses into the story with the promotional posters for the main characters. These posters practically scream "Attention, turbulence zone ahead!"
Each portrayed face seems to carry more secrets than a poorly closed suitcase on the baggage carousel. With the premiere scheduled for December 13, the mystery atmosphere is already denser than the check-in line during peak season. Netflix, once again, knows how to keep us biting our nails in advance.
Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, a specialist in transforming the mundane into a nightmare, the film places viewers in the heart of a claustrophobic thriller, where a TSA agent, played by Taron Egerton, faces blackmail that threatens to turn his Christmas into an epic disaster.
On the other side, Jason Bateman takes on the role of a mysterious antagonist who, with a cap and headphones, seems more dangerous than a passenger who insists on ignoring safety instructions.
But what really catches the viewers' attention are the posters themselves. These beautifully composed images are almost a visual prologue to the story. They put us face to face with tension while whispering: "Nothing here is as simple as it seems. Get ready to take off."
Ethan Kopek in Carry-On: The weight of duty
Taron Egerton, as Ethan Kopek in Carry-On, wears the TSA uniform with the rigidity of someone who understands that he is on the front line of security— but also of tension. His fixed gaze and posture suggest a man who knows that each decision he makes carries implications far beyond what his eyes can see in the scanner.
The choice of Egerton for this role is a decision that elevates the emotional impact of the character. Known for playing heroes who face ethical dilemmas in films like Rocketman and Kingsman, he brings an intensity that promises to capture the audience. Ethan is more than just an agent; he is a man dealing with the weight of decisions that can change his life—and those of many others—forever.
The mysterious traveler: Jason Bateman on the verge of chaos
Jason Bateman appears as a common traveler, but his calculating look and relaxed posture denounce something sinister. With a cap and headphones that seem to scream "Don't notice me," his discreet appearance seems more of a disguise than a choice.
Bateman has already shown in Ozark and Based on a True Story that he knows how to dominate the space between the friendly and the sinister. In Carry-On, he seems ready to explore this duality again, transforming his character into a catalyst for chaos.
Who is the mysterious traveler? A cunning manipulator or just a man pushed into a desperate situation? The only certainty is that he will be the force that drives all the film's tension. But is it?
The enigmatic presence of Sofia Carson
With an impeccable look and a posture that overflows with confidence, Sofia Carson seems to take on a role of great responsibility in the airport chaos. Her expression mixes control and mystery as if her character knows more than she lets on in Carry-On.
Carson, who has already shined in projects like Purple Hearts, has the ability to balance vulnerability and strength. In Carry-On, she seems to be the type of character who moves between reason and danger, and this mix promises to be one of the film's highlights. Is she an ally or an adversary?
Danielle Deadwyler: The force between chaos
Danielle Deadwyler emerges with a look that seems to scan beyond the surface, seeing details that others cannot. With patrol cars and planes composing the scenario around her, her character in Carry-On radiates determination and authority.
Deadwyler is known for roles that range from intense to visceral, and here she seems ready to add another vital force to the cast—her role here seems to be that of a figure of order in a world plunged into chaos.

Although the highlight of the posters is capturing the four central characters, it is impossible to ignore the impact that the cast as a whole brings to the production. With Collet-Serra at the helm, the promise is of a story where everyone has something to hide—and something to lose.
