What if someone you loved became something else?
‘Wolf Man”, a bone-chilling new horror film from the creative minds of Blumhouse and the talented writer-director Leigh Whannell, known for the haunting modern thriller “The Invisible Man”.
Christopher Abbott, known for his nomination at the Golden Globe Awards and appearances in “Poor Things” and “It Comes at Night,” takes on the role of Blake, a husband and father in San Francisco. His life takes a surprising turn when he inherits his secluded childhood home in rural Oregon following his father’s mysterious disappearance and presumed death. As Blake’s relationship with his high-powered wife, Charlotte (played by Emmy winner Julia Garner from “Ozark” and “Inventing Anna”), begins to unravel, he convinces her to escape the urban chaos and accompany him to the estate alongside their daughter, Ginger (portrayed by Matlida Firth from “Hullraisers” and “Coma”).
As the family nears the farmhouse under the veil of darkness, they come under assault by a mysterious creature. Frantically, they secure themselves inside the house while the beast lurks outside. As time passes, Blake’s behavior takes a bizarre turn, morphing into an unfamiliar entity. In the midst of this eerie night, Charlotte must confront a critical choice: is the threat lurking inside their house more perilous than the one outside?
The movie also features Sam Jaeger (known for his role in The Handmaid’s Tale), Ben Prendergast (from The Sojourn Audio Drama), and Benedict Hardie (famous for The Invisible Man). Additionally, it introduces newcomer Zac Chandler, along with Beatriz Romilly and Milo Cawthorne, both known for their roles in Shortland Street.
Wolf Man is directed by Whannell and written by Whannell & Corbett Tuck. Whannell’s previous films with Blumhouse include The Invisible Man, Upgrade and Insidious: Chapter 3.
The film is produced by Blumhouse founder and CEO Jason Blum p.g.a., and Ryan Gosling (The Fall Guy, Lost River) and is executive produced by Leigh Whannell, Beatriz Sequeira, Mel Turner and Ken Kao.
