‘The Grudge’ Poster Gets Right Up in Kayako’s Face
Kayako is back to haunt Andrea Riseborough in Sony Pictures’ latest The Grudge, which runs parallel to during the events of the Sarah Michelle Gellar-starring sequel. Played by Junko Bailey in the return of J-horror, this new poster gets right up in Kayako’s face.
In theaters next year, the Nicolas Pesce-directed film follows a detective (Riseborough) who investigates a serious of suspicious deaths all stemming from one house. Once she enters, the curse latches onto her and won’t let go. There are no cat sounds here and no sign of the little boy ghost (Toshio), but Kayako and her long black hair make quite the entrance.
Sam Raimi‘s latest production also features horror veteran Lin Shaye (Insidious) with Demian Bichir (The Nun). Also starring are John Cho (“The Exorcist”), Betty Gilpin (“Glow”), Jacki Weaver and Frankie Faison.
The R-rated remake will infect theaters on January 3, 2020.

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
