Do Revenge is expected to debut on Netflix on Friday, September 16, 2022, at 12 midnight PT. Netflix released the film's official trailer on August 9, 2022, with Camila Mendes' Drea Torres saying,

''I spent 17 years meticulously curating the perfect life. I had the perfect friends, the perfect boyfriend. But do you know where all of that got me? Absolutely destroyed.''

She's then seen punching her boyfriend and saying, ''Max ruined my life. He'll never get away with this.'' The plot is subsequently established as Drea tells her friend Eleanor that they should ''team up and do each other's revenge.''

Overall, the trailer has a quirky tone that fans of black comedies would certainly love. The story sounds quite intriguing, and it'll be interesting to see how it pans out. Along with the trailer, Netflix also shared a short description of the film, which states:

''After a clandestine run-in, Drea (Alpha, fallen it girl played by Camila Mendes) and Eleanor (beta, new alt girl played by Maya Hawke) team up to go after each other’s tormentors. Do Revenge is a subverted Hitchcock-ian dark comedy featuring the scariest protagonists of all: teenage girls.''

The Alfred Hitchcock film that the film is partly inspired by, Strangers on a Train, follows a similar plot. In the film, one man, a psychopath, proposes to the other a chilling ''swap revenge'' plan. Although initial reactions to the film were mixed, it is now widely regarded as one of Hitchcock's greatest films.
