New Promotional Image for “We Live in Time” Steals the Spotlight with Bug-Eyed Carousel Horse
A24 has released a new promotional image for “We Live in Time”, a decade-spanning romance starring Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield. The image appears to show the couple in a romantic moment on a carousel ride, but it’s quickly overshadowed by the eerie, bug-eyed carousel horse beside them.
The demonic horse’s bulging, soulless eye and gaping maw demand attention, refusing to let viewers mindlessly enjoy the romantic moment. The pony’s gaze seems to break the fourth wall, as if trapped in a silent scream.
Social media users quickly took notice of the unsettling horse, using image editing software to create memes featuring the creature. Even Late Show host Stephen Colbert weighed in, joking that the horse must be “tripping balls on ketamine”.
It’s unclear whether the horse was created specifically for the film or was found in the wild. The image has sparked widespread attention and will undoubtedly become a lasting memory for viewers.
“We Live in Time” is set to arrive in theatres on October 11, with Pugh and Garfield portraying a couple that falls in love, starts a family, and navigates career milestones and health struggles throughout the decade.
With its unique blend of romance and unease, this film is sure to leave a lasting impression on audiences. Will the horrific carousel horse steal the show? Only time will tell.
