The trailer also showed Moira safe with Luke (O-T Fagbenle), while June was seen reunited with Nick (Max Minghella), the father of her child. Elsewhere in the trailer was Fiennes' Waterford. He approaches a hostage man in the woods with a gun in his hand while appearing to have intentions of pulling the trigger.
