Lionsgate has a post-apocalyptic movie coming out that stars Halle Berry as a woman trying to keep her children safe in a world that includes possessed people (maybe?) as well as a giant snake, which may or may not be real.
The film is called Never Let Go and comes from director Alexandre Aja (The Hills Have Eyes, Crawl). And as the recently released trailer shows, it looks equal parts disturbing and creepy. It also looks like it plays with audience expectations of what is real and what may be a delusion (though I’d lean more toward those half-decayed humans being real within the universe of the movie).
Here’s Never Let Go’s official synopsis:
In this new psychological thriller/horror, as an evil takes over the world beyond their front doorstep, the only protection for a mother (Halle Berry) and her twin sons is their house and their family’s protective bond. Needing to stay connected at all times—even tethering themselves with ropes—they cling to one another, urging each other to never let go. But when one of the boys questions if the evil is real, the ties that bind them together are severed, triggering a terrifying fight for survival.
In addition to Berry, the movie stars Percy Daggs IV and Anthony B. Jenkins. It’s written by KC Coughlin and Ryan Grassby.
Never Let Go premieres in theaters on September 20, 2024.
