Official Synopsis
“Since the death of his pregnant wife in a Haitian earthquake 12 years ago, Victor Fielding (Tony winner and Oscar® nominee Leslie Odom, Jr.; One Night in Miami, Hamilton) has raised their daughter, Angela (Lidya Jewett, Good Girls) on his own.
But when Angela and her friend Katherine (newcomer Olivia Marcum), disappear in the woods, only to return three days later with no memory of what happened to them, it unleashes a chain of events that will force Victor to confront the nadir of evil and, in his terror and desperation, seek out the only person alive who has witnessed anything like it before: Chris MacNeil.”

While the whole cast is impressive, most of us are extra geeked for the return of Ellen Burstyn. Burstyn originated the role of Chris Macneil but has kept her distance from the franchise until now. If you need more prompting to put the release date into your calendar, watch the creepy trailer below.
