Producers Jason Blum of Blumhouse and James Wan of Atomic Monster take fans on a deep dive behind the scenes of Night Swim, a twisted horror film from writer/director Bryce McGuire. Night Swim, based on a short film by McGuire and Rod Blackhurst, will arrive in theaters on January 5, 2024.
Wyatt Russell (currently playing a younger version of his dad Kurt’s character in Monarch: Legacy of Monsters), Oscar nominee Kerry Condon (The Banshees of Inisherin), Amélie Hoeferle (The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes), and Gavin Warren (Fear the Walking Dead) star. Blum and Wan (the Saw and The Conjuring franchises) serve as producers, with Blumhouse’s Ryan Turek and Atomic Monster’s Michael Clear and Judson Scott executive producing.
Universal Pictures offers this synopsis of the PG-13 supernatural thriller:
The film stars Wyatt Russell as Ray Waller, a former major league baseball player forced into early retirement by a degenerative illness, who moves into a new home with his concerned wife Eve (Condon), teenage daughter Izzy (Hoeferle) and young son Elliot (Warren). Secretly hoping, against the odds, to return to pro ball, Ray persuades Eve that the new home’s shimmering backyard swimming pool will be fun for the kids and provide physical therapy for him.
But a dark secret in the home’s past will unleash a malevolent force that will drag the family under, into the depths of inescapable terror.
