Julia Garner‘s new home is not quite what she expected in the first trailer for Paramount+‘s Rosemary’s Baby prequel feature, Apartment 7A.
The psychological horror movie from director Natalie Erika James hits the streaming service and digital VOD on Sept. 27. The cast includes Dianne Wiest, Kevin McNally, Jim Sturgess, Marli Siu, Andrew Buchan, Rosy McEwen and Kobna Holdbrook-Smith.
Apartment 7A focuses on Terry Gionoffrio (Garner), an aspiring dancer in New York City who suffers an injury and moves into a luxury apartment building called the Bramford with an affluent couple (Wiest and McNally). After a Broadway producer (Sturgess) offers her a path to fame, Terry has an evening she can’t quite remember and suspects that something evil inhabits her apartment and the building itself.
“There’s something wrong with these people,” Garner says ominously in the trailer that shows her character’s concerns mounting.
James (Relic) helmed the film from a script she co-wrote with Christian White and Skylar James that is based on author Ira Levin’s 1967 horror novel, Rosemary’s Baby. Apartment 7A serves as a prequel to director Roman Polanski’s 1968 feature adaptation of Levin’s book of the same name that stars Mia Farrow in the title role. Garner’s character, Terry Gionoffrio, was portrayed by actress Angela Dorian in the 1968 classic.
Producers on Apartment 7A are John Krasinski, Allyson Seeger, Michael Bay, Andrew Form and Brad Fuller.
Garner earned three Emmy Awards for her breakout role as Ruth Langmore on the Netflix crime series Ozark. She is set to star in Wolf Man and The Fantastic Four: First Steps, both scheduled for release next year.
Her other previous credits include the series The Americans, Maniac and Inventing Anna, along with such features as The Assistant and The Royal Hotel.
