This September, a vacation goes very wrong for an unsuspecting family in Speak No Evil. In the new panic-inducing trailer, James McAvoy (Split, Glass) harbors a dark and deadly secret, giving off serious psycho vibes.
Mackenzie Davis (Terminator: Dark Fate) and SAG award-winner Scoot McNairy (A Quiet Place Part II) star as a couple who, along with their young daughter Agnes (Alix West Lefler; Riverdale), accept a holiday invitation from their new friends, Paddy (McAvoy), his wife Ciara (Aisling Franciosi; Game of Thrones). But the happy family has no idea what horrors await them.
This pulse-pounding film is from writer-director James Watkins. Watkins has a talent for building a dark atmosphere and a sense of mounting dread, as seen in horror films like The Woman in Black and Eden Lake. Judging by the new Speak No Evil trailer, we can expect to see that again. Christian Tafdrup and Mads Tafdrup co-wrote the script for the film, a remake of the 2022 Danish horror film of the same name.
Jason Blum (Five Nights at Freddy’s, M3GAN) and Paul Ritchie (McMafia, The Ipcress File) produce the film. Beatriz Sequeira executive produces for Blumhouse, along with executive producers Jacob Jarek and Christian Tafdrup.
Blumhouse’s Speak No Evil is set to open in theaters on September 13, 2024.
