It's been a while since we heard anything about the upcoming remake of Witchboard from director Chuck Russell (A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, The Blob), but Collider has today debuted a brand new image as well as confirmed that the supernatural horror will be released on August 15.
Starring in Witchboard, a remake of Kevin S. Tenney’s 1986 original, is Stranger Things‘ Jamie Campbell Bower, as well as Madison Iseman (I Know What You Did Last Summer), Aaron Dominguez (Only Murders in the Building), Antonia Desplat (Shantaram) and Charlie Tahan (Ozark).
Russell directs from a script co-written with Greg McKay. The pair also produced alongside Kade Vu and Bernie Gewissler, in an A-Nation Media production. Exec producers are Eric Schiermeyer, Sarah Buxton, John Paul Isham and Walter Josten.
In Witchboard:
Emily, her fiancé Christian and a group of their friends open an organic café, refurbishing an old carriage house in New Orleans’ French Quarter. But a darkness descends over Emily when she discovers an ancient pendulum board, once used to summon spirits.
Christian seeks help for Emily from occult expert Alexander Babtiste, but Babtiste has secrets of his own, knowing the fateful bloodlines that binds them all to the Witchboard. A modern coven of White Witches, a masked ball at Babtiste’s mansion, and the legacy of Naga Soth, the Queen of Witches, are all part of a dangerous game that puts Emily’s very soul at risk.
Look out for Witchboard on August 15, and check out Collider's new image below.
