Leave it up to the writer-director of 2013's crazy revenge thriller "Blue Ruin" to turn Captain Jean-Luc Picard (or Professor Charles Xavier, for that matter) into a white supremacist leader. The line must be drawn here!

Check out the newly-released teaser trailer for writer-director Jeremy Saulnier's new offbeat thriller "Green Room," which will likely be later known as the film that had the ever-loveable Patrick Stewart playing a neo-Nazi scumbag.

The minute-long preview, released by Empire Magazine, shows Anton Yelchin (Star Trek reboot), Imogen Poots (28 Weeks Later) and Alia Shawkat (The Final Girls) as members of a touring punk band who are targeted by a gang of white supremacists (led by Stewart) when they accidentally witness a terrifying skinhead-related crime.

Mark Webber, Eric Edelstein, Joe Cole, Callum Turner, Kai Lennox, and "Blue Ruin" star Macon Blair also appear in the film.

"Green Room," which premiered to rave reviews at last year's Cannes Film Festival, will screen next week at Sundance, before opening officially in theaters on April 1st.

synopsis:
Down on their luck punk rockers "The Ain't Rights" are finishing up a long and unsuccessful tour, and are about to call it quits when they get an unexpected booking at an isolated, run-down club deep in the backwoods of Oregon. What seems merely to be a third-rate gig escalates into something much more sinister when they witness an act of violence backstage that they weren't meant to see. Now trapped backstage, they must face off against the club's depraved owner, Darcy Banker (Patrick Stewart), a man who will do anything to protect the secrets of his nefarious enterprise. But while Darcy and his henchmen think the band will be easy to get rid of, The Ain't Rights prove themselves much more cunning and capable than anyone expected, turning the tables on their unsuspecting captors and setting the stage for the ultimate life-or-death showdown.
