Pedro Pascal stars as Alex Serian, a world-renowned cellist born into a family of musicians. After spending two decades performing around the world, Alex returns to Los Angeles with a new dream of composing music for films. His homecoming marks the beginning of a transformative journey, as he rediscovers his passion, reconnects with his roots, and navigates the emotional highs and lows of a life devoted to music.
According to the official synopsis, "A gifted cellist, Alex Serian (Pedro Pascal), returns home to Los Angeles after 20 years on the road. Music, which has been the constant, all-consuming river of his life, begins to carry Alex on an adventure that will change him forever."

Together, they bring to life a story that serves as both a character-driven drama and a love letter to the creative minds who compose unforgettable film scores.
Written and directed by Tony Gilroy, Behemoth reflects the filmmaker's lifelong admiration for movie music. The film features an original score by The Behemoth Collective, a team of composers brought together for the project, while acclaimed cinematographer Damián García captures the emotional and visual richness of Alex Serian's journey. The teaser offers glimpses of sweeping orchestral performances, intimate moments of self-discovery, and the magic behind creating music for the big screen.
With its emotional storytelling, stellar cast, and celebration of cinematic music, Behemoth is already emerging as one of the most anticipated drama releases of the year.
