Stephen King’s The Boogeyman Official Trailer
From Host and Dashcam director Rob Savage, The Boogeyman will be getting a theatrical release on June 2, 2023, from 20th Century Studios, which is notable considering the film was originally set to go direct-to-Hulu. From what we’ve heard, a strong test screening – plus approval from King himself – gave the studio confidence to super-size the film’s release strategy.
Sophie Thatcher (“Yellowjackets”) and Chris Messina (Birds of Prey) star alongside David Dastmalchian (Dune, The Suicide Squad), Marin Ireland (Y: The Last Man, The Umbrella Academy), Vivien Lyra Blair (Bird Box, Mr. Corman) and Madison Hu (Voyagers).
The original story was first published in 1973, before finding a home in Stephen King’s Night Shift collection in 1978. This will be the first time the tale has been adapted as a feature.
