Sony has provided audiences with another look at its upcoming Until Dawn film the release of the film’s first trailer trailer showing the cast of unlucky characters facing off with masked slashers, corpse-like creatures, and skin burrowing bugs.
The trailer follows an earlier glimpse at the footage which was brief but gave viewers a good idea of the jumpscares to come.
Though the film has a new cast and doesn’t follow the exact plot of the game, Peter Stormare’s Dr. Hill does reprise his role, providing a connection to the film’s gaming roots. But the game’s all-star cast (which included the likes of Hayden Panettiere, and Rami Malek, among others) has been refreshed with Odessa A’zion, Ella Rubin, and Maya Mitchell stepping into starring roles.
Writer and producer Gary Dauberman said that while the plot and characters may not be identical to the game itself, his ultimate goal in making the film was “giving the audience the same experience they got playing the game.” Director David F. Sandberg also stated that the film has an authentic tone and vibe that fans of the game will likely notice, but he added that rather than being a shot-for-shot adaptation, the upcoming film would also build on the Until Dawn universe.
A remake of the spine-tingling 2015 choose-your-own nightmare adventure was released in 2024, and its ending hinted at a sequel, so it’s possible the film will implement elements from the remake as well as the original.
The trailer ended with a promise (or a threat, depending how you look at it): “Coming soon.” Until Dawn releases in theaters on April 25, 2025.
