"Back in Black" is a dark comedy starring Oscar-winner Christopher Walken that premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival 2026. The film explores an unusual premise where a small-town funeral home faces financial ruin as wellness trends—such as juicing and meditation—effectively reduce mortality rates and eliminate customers. The story takes a darker turn when the funeral director's granddaughter devises an unorthodox solution to revive the struggling family business.

Directed by Ron Murphy, the film follows funeral director Clyde (Walken) and his family struggling to survive as health-conscious trends render their business obsolete. The cast includes Ella Ballentine as Sam, the resourceful granddaughter, alongside Jane Curtin, Josh Richards, and Cooper Levy. The filmmakers discussed balancing the film's dark comedic tone with sympathetic characters in interviews at TIFF, where it made its world premiere. No release date has been announced yet.
