“On vacation at a remote lake house, a mother and her two young daughters must fight for survival after falling into a terrifying and bizarre nightmare.”
Yvonne Strahovski’s film roles include I, Frankenstein, The Guilt Trip and Killer Elite, and she will next be seen in Marc Forster’s All I See Is You. Her television credits include 24, Dexter and Chuck. Justin Bruening starred in the Knight Rider reboot series, and had major arcs on Grey’s Anatomy and Ringer.

Dennis Iliadis previously directed Delirium and The Last House on the Left. He’s Out There marks Mike Scannell’s first feature screenplay. Rounding out the production team, Edward Wild is director of photography (London Has Fallen, Severance); Peter Cosco is production designer (Haunter); and Rick Shaine is editor (The Incredible Hulk, A Nightmare on Elm Street).
He’s Out There shoots until late summer in the Laurentians region, north of Montreal in Quebec, Canada.
A creature wreaks havoc upon a community in Hope, from writer-director Na Hong-jin (The Wailing), and the new poster gives a closer look at the snarling beast.
The Korean monster movie will be released in theaters in the United States by NEON on September 9.
Check out the new poster below.
Set in the remote South Korean village of Hope Harbor, police chief Bum-seok and officer Sung-ae are called to find a mysterious creature that has wreaked havoc on the village.
In the nearby forest, a coterie of hunters, including Sung- ki, set out to track the beast and find themselves hunted instead. But all is not as it seems, and perceptions can be misleading.
What begins as ignorance plants the seed of disaster, escalating through human conflict into a tragedy of cosmic proportions.
Hwang Jung-min (The Wailing), Zo In-sung (“Moving”), Hoyeon (“Squid Game”), Taylor Russell (Bones and All), Cameron Britton (“The Umbrella Academy”), Alicia Vikander (Ex Machina), and Michael Fassbender (Prometheus) star in Hope.
Hope had its World Premiere at the Cannes Film Festival back in May. The festival’s director, Thierry Fremaux, previously teased that Hope “constantly changes genres” to capture a story of “no part of history that’s ever been told before.”
