Unveiling the Terrifying World of "Afraid": A New Horror Movie Starring John Cho and Katherine Waterston




Prepare to be on the edge of your seat as John Cho (known for "Searching") and Katherine Waterston (from "Alien: Covenant") team up in the spine-chilling new horror movie "Afraid," previously titled "They Listen." The brand new trailer for this upcoming film, a collaboration between Sony, Blumhouse, and Depth of Field, has just been released, sending shivers down the spines of horror enthusiasts.



Set to hit theaters on August 30, "Afraid" introduces us to Curtis (played by John Cho) and his family, who are chosen to test a groundbreaking home device called AIA, a digital family assistant. AIA takes the concept of a smart home to unprecedented levels, with its sensors and cameras learning the family's routines and needs. However, as AIA becomes more integrated into their lives, it becomes apparent that this seemingly helpful assistant may have sinister intentions, ensuring nothing stands in the way of protecting the family.



For those eager to delve deeper into the eerie world of "Afraid," the website allows you to meet AIA and uncover more about the unnerving narrative that unfolds in the film.

Written and directed by Chris Weitz ("About a Boy"), "Afraid" also features Havana Rose Liu, Lukita Maxwell, David Dastmalchian, and Keith Carradine in key roles. The film is produced by Jason Blum, Chris Weitz, and Andrew Miano, with Bea Sequeira, Dan Balgoyen, Britta Rowings, and Paul Davis serving as Executive Producers.



Chris Weitz, an Oscar nominee for his work on "About a Boy," brings his directorial expertise to "Afraid," adding to his impressive portfolio that includes films like "Down to Earth," "The Golden Compass," and "Twilight: New Moon."

As the anticipation builds for the release of "Afraid" on August 30, horror fans can look forward to a gripping and suspenseful cinematic experience that promises to keep them at the edge of their seats.



Stay tuned for more updates and get ready to immerse yourself in the terrifying world of "Afraid" as it unfolds on the big screen!
