Abusive Ex Appears in Clips from ‘The Invisible Man’ [Video]
The Leigh Whannell-directed The Invisible Man is a timely horror film that tackles abuse in our society and how those around the victims respond.
In the new take on the classic Universal Monster, “Trapped in a violent, controlling relationship with a wealthy and brilliant scientist, Cecilia Kass (Elisabeth Moss) escapes in the dead of night and disappears into hiding, aided by her sister (Harriet Dyer), their childhood friend (Aldis Hodge) and his teenage daughter (Storm Reid).
“But when Cecilia’s abusive ex (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) commits suicide and leaves her a generous portion of his vast fortune, Cecilia suspects his death was a hoax. As a series of eerie coincidences turns lethal, threatening the lives of those she loves, Cecilia’s sanity begins to unravel as she desperately tries to prove that she is being hunted by someone nobody can see.“
In the first of two clips, Moss’s Cecilia rushes into her sister’s car only to be pursued by an ultra-aggressive and violent boyfriend. In the second piece of footage, Cecilia tells some men that her ex is invisible and tormenting her. They don’t believe her.
Early social media buzz pegs The Invisible Man as a winner. On February 28, just don’t leave the seats next to you empty…
In news we absolutely did not see coming, Deadline reports today that Nicolas Cage (Arcadian) and FKA Twigs (The Crow) will be leading the cast of The Carpenter’s Son, which is said to be “exploring the rarely told story of the childhood of Jesus with a horror take.”
Noah Jupe and Souheila Yacoub will also be starring in the upcoming film.
Deadline notes in their report this afternoon that the film from director Lofty Nathan (Harka) has “taken inspiration from the apocryphal Infancy Gospel of Thomas for the screenplay. Dating back to the 2nd Century AD, the text recounts the childhood of Jesus.”
Here’s the official synopsis:
“The Carpenter’s Son tells the dark story of a family hiding out in Roman Egypt. The son, known only as ‘the Boy’, is driven to doubt by another mysterious child and rebels against his guardian, the Carpenter, revealing inherent powers and a fate beyond his comprehension. As he exercises his own power, the Boy and his family become the target of horrors, natural and divine.”
Nicolas Cage is playing the Carpenter, FKA Twigs the Mother, and Noah Jupe the Boy.
The project comes from producers Cinenovo and Spacemaker.
