This year marks the 10th anniversary of the critically acclaimed Until Dawn video game, and fans have something exciting to look forward to. The world premiere of the Until Dawn movie trailer has just been released, teasing an adaptation set to hit theaters soon.
PlayStation Productions and Sony Pictures have teamed up with director/producer David F. Sandberg (Annabelle: Creation, Lights Out) and writer/producer Gary Dauberman (It, Annabelle series, The Nun series) to bring the story to the big screen. Their goal is to stay true to the essence of the game, particularly its emphasis on player decisions with branching paths and life-altering consequences, while delivering an experience designed to thrill and terrify moviegoers.
The movie, while set in the same world as the original game, will introduce entirely new characters and a fresh, original storyline. Though players of the game will recognize familiar themes, the film aims to keep audiences on edge, maintaining a sense of suspense throughout. Fans will also find intriguing connections between the events of the movie and the original game.
Peter Stormare, who portrayed Dr. Hill in the game, reprises his role and serves as a key connection between the two versions. His character’s involvement in the movie’s plot will raise intriguing questions for fans to explore. Stormare shared his excitement for the project:
“I’ve been lucky to be part of Until Dawn since the original, incredibly terrifying game. That’s why I’m thrilled to be involved in the film, as it’s a true love letter to horror and fully honors the spirit of the game. The movie features fresh characters and new victims in a story filled with twists. Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering it for the first time, get ready to experience Until Dawn like never before.”
With the trailer now available, fans are encouraged to stay tuned for further updates as the movie’s release date approaches later this year.
