This is where is all begins.
Just yesterday we told you that Lights Out director David F. Sandberg’s Annabelle 2, the sequel to the smash hit The Conjuring spinoff, was officially titled Annabelle: Creation.
While the full trailer doesn’t arrive until tomorrow, Warner Bros./New Line has assembled a teaser that fully explains the title; watch as a doll maker creates the very first edition of Annabelle and packs her up for delivery!
Looking interestingly like the opening of a Child’s Play film, Annabelle comes to life on August 11, 2017.
Trace saw the footage at the SXSW Film Festival. Here’s what he thought…
In Annabelle 2, “Several years after the tragic death of their little girl, a dollmaker and his wife welcome a nun and several girls from a shuttered orphanage into their home, soon becoming the target of the dollmaker’s possessed creation, Annabelle.”

The full cast includes Stephanie Sigman (Spectre), Talitha Bateman (The 5th Wave), Lulu Wilson (upcoming Ouija 2, Deliver Us from Evil), Philippa Anne Coulthard (After the Dark), Grace Fulton (Badland), Lou Lou Safran (The Choice), Samara Lee (Fox Catcher, The Last Witch Hunter), Tayler Buck in her feature film debut, with Anthony LaPaglia (TV’s Without a Trace) and Miranda Otto (Showtime’s Homeland, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy).
Sandberg directs from a screenplay by Gary Dauberman, who also wrote Annabelle.
