Released on August 26, 2205, The Woman in Cabin 10 trailer opens with journalist Laura Blacklock meeting Richard, the host of the maiden voyage on a lavish yacht. The scenes depict a privileged and glittering world, where Laura is assigned to write an article about a charity foundation, accompanied by a host of wealthy guests aboard. The initial scenes of the trailer feature sparkling wine, sophisticated discussions, and the vast, open ocean.

This facade changes quickly in the dead of night when Laura witnesses a body being thrown overboard. She raises the alarm, identifying the source of the tragedy as the woman in Cabin 10, which is located next door to that of her cabin. A crew member calmly tells her that no guest was ever scheduled in that cabin and that every passenger on the itinerary is accounted for.

When Laura insists that what she saw was undeniably real, she descends into a spiral of isolation and paranoia. As such, she is subjected to doubt, with people dismissing her hysterical claims as something she was merely convinced of. She grows desperate, faces gaslighting, and realizes the immense power of the people around her when one of the characters warns her not to "piss them off."

The Woman in Cabin 10 trailer suspense escalates further as she searches the yacht, faces obstacles, and desperately tries to prove that she is not delusional. The trailer concludes with Laura answering one of the passangers as he questions her why would anyone be targeting her to which she replies, "to kill me, to silence me."
