Buffalo 8 has released the official trailer for the psychological thriller “The Patient,” starring Ryan Phillippe and Kate Beckinsale. The film follows a man who wakes up in a hospital after a car accident, with partial paralysis and no memory of what happened, and is told he is someone else. Beckinsale plays Dr. Rose, and the plot builds around the patient’s growing suspicion that he is being manipulated.
Both outlets describe “The Patient” as an amnesia-based mystery centered on shifting perceptions and tension. FirstShowing.net adds that the movie is planned for home video/VOD rather than a traditional theatrical run and points to writer/director Mukunda Michael Dewil’s prior work. ComingSoon.net focuses more directly on the trailer release and the core setup: the patient’s altered identity claim and Dr. Rose’s role in the deception. Together, the coverage frames the film’s appeal around its twisty premise and psychological suspense.
