What will happen in the movie?
Since the death of his pregnant wife in the Haitian earthquake 12 years ago, Victor Fielding (Leslie Odom) has been raising their daughter, Angela (Lidya Jewett), alone. When Angela and her friend Katherine (Olivia Marcum) disappear into the forest, only to return three days later with no memory of what happened to them, a chain of events is triggered that will force Victor to confront evil. In her terror and desperation, she will find the only person alive who witnessed something similar: Chris MacNeil (Ellen Burstyn).
For the first time since the 1973 film, Oscar winner Ellen Burstyn reprises her iconic role as Chris MacNeil, the actress who forever changed what happened to her daughter Regan five decades earlier. The film also stars Emmy winner Ann Dowd as Victor and Angela’s neighbor, Grammy winner Jennifer Nettles and two-time Tony winner Norbert Leo Butz as Katherine’s parents.
