Universal Pictures has released the official poster for Baltasar Kormákur's upcoming survival thriller Beast, which stars 5x Primetime Emmy-nominee Idris Elba (Thor: Ragnarok; Avengers: Infinity War) in the lead role as a man who must overcome the elements to save his family from a gruesome demise.

Following the death of his wife, Dr. Nate Samuels (Idris Elba) brings his two teenage daughters Meredith (Iyana Halley) and Norah (Leah Sava Jeffries) to South Africa, where he first met their mother. He brings them to a game reserve, managed by his old friend Martin Battles (Sharlto Copley), for what should be a quiet trip.

However, things take a turn for the worst when a massive bloodthirsty lion, having recently escaped some evil poachers, sets his sights on their vehicle.

Beast hits theaters on August 19.

Check out the official poster below:

Sometimes the rustle in the bushes actually is a monster.

Idris Elba (Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, The Suicide Squad) stars in a pulse-pounding new thriller about a father and his two teenage daughters who find themselves hunted by a massive rogue lion intent on proving that the savannah has but one apex predator.

Elba plays Dr. Nate Daniels, a recently widowed husband who returns to South Africa, where he first met his wife, on a long-planned trip with their daughters to a game reserve managed by Martin Battles (Sharlto Copley, Russian Doll series, Maleficent), an old family friend and wildlife biologist. But what begins as a journey of healing jolts into a fearsome fight for survival when a lion, a survivor of blood-thirsty poachers who now sees all humans as the enemy, begins stalking them.
