Until Dawn trailer world premiere – PlayStation.Blog
This year marks the 10thth celebrates the release date of Game until dawnand I’m so excited to share with you the world premiere of the trailer for Until Dawn, coming to theaters soon.
PlayStation Productions and Sony Pictures worked closely with director/producer David F. Sandberg (Annabelle: Creation, Lights Out) and writer/producer Gary Dauberman (It, Annabelle series, The Nun series) to translate Until Dawn to the big screen. In making that transition, we wanted to honor the spirit of the Until Dawn games – especially the idea of decisions with branching paths and deadly consequences – while adapting it in a way that maximizes both entertainment and terror for moviegoers.
Even though the film’s story is set in the same world as the game, it was important to us that the film be more than just a retelling. Instead, the film will feature new characters in a new, original story. If you’ve played this game, you know not everything is as it seems. With the movie, we wanted the audience to keep guessing until the end. We can’t wait for fans to discover how the events of the film connect to the Until Dawn game.
Peter Stormare, who you know as Dr. Hill in the game, is one of those important connecting links. The film will delve into the character’s involvement in the game’s events, raising questions for fans to explore. Given Peter’s role in both projects, it’s fitting that he introduced the first Until Dawn trailer to the world:
“I’ve been so lucky to be a part of Until Dawn since the original, incredible, super scary game and that’s why I’m so excited to be a part of this movie, because the whole series the film is a love letter to the horror genre, and it completely honors the spirit of the game. The film will be full of new characters and victims in a completely new story, full of unexpected twists and turns. So whether you’re a longtime fan or just discovering it for the first time, get ready for Until Dawn like you’ve never seen it before.”

For now, enjoy the world premiere of the trailer and keep checking back as there will be more updates between now and Until Dawn hits theaters later this year.
