Light and Dark Collide on Official ‘The Nun’ Poster
Bloody Disgusting is the first to receive the brand new official one-sheet for New Line Cinema’s The Nun, which will kick off the San Diego Comic-Con tonight as part of their annual ScareDiego.
The poster juxtaposes light and dark, showing a photo of star Taissa Farmiga that’s burning to reveal Bonnie Aarons‘ title character, who first appeared in James Wan‘s The Conjuring 2. It’s either a simple analogy or there’s an implication that maybe Farmiga’s character becomes the Nun, somehow? Maybe she gets possessed?
Jimmy Champane was lucky enough to visit the set during filming and spoke with director Corin Hardy, as well as the cast. You can read several reports from the set by clicking here.
In The Nun…
“When a young nun at a cloistered abbey in Romania takes her own life, a priest with a haunted past and a novitiate on the threshold of her final vows are sent by the Vatican to investigate. Together they uncover the order’s unholy secret. Risking not only their lives but their faith and their very souls, they confront a malevolent force in the form of the same demonic nun that first terrorized audiences in The Conjuring 2, as the abbey becomes a horrific battleground between the living and the damned.”
The Nun stars Oscar-nominated Demian Bichir (“A Better Life”) as Father Burke, Taissa Farmiga (TV’s “American Horror Story”) as Sister Irene, Jonas Bloquet (Elle) as local villager Frenchie, Charlotte Hope (TV’s “Game of Thrones”) as the abbey’s Sister Victoria, Ingrid Bisu (“Toni Erdmann”) as Sister Oana, and Bonnie Aarons, reprising her Conjuring 2 role as the title character.
Say your prayers as The Nun returns to theaters on September 7, 2018.
