A Terrifying Glimpse into Fame and Obsession

Buckle up horror fans—Jordan Peele is back to unsettle your soul with HIM, a fresh horror-thriller that peels back the glossy layers of fame to reveal something sinister beneath. Directed by Justin Tipping (Kicks, Joe vs. Carole), HIM promises a psychologically intense story about sacrifice, obsession, and the true cost of greatness.

A Story Written in Blood and Ambition

From a critically acclaimed Black List script by Zack Akers and Skip Bronkie (Limetown), HIM follows a rising football star who gets the chance of a lifetime—a rare invitation to train with a legendary quarterback at a mysterious, off-the-grid compound. But behind the facade of mentorship lies something much darker.

This film doesn’t just flirt with fear—it confronts it head-on.

Marlon Wayans Like You’ve Never Seen Him

In a bold, dramatic turn, Marlon Wayans (White Chicks, Requiem for a Dream) delivers a haunting performance as the aging QB1—a football icon whose legacy teeters on the edge of madness. Rising star Tyriq Withers (Atlanta, I Know What You Did Last Summer) plays his impressionable protégé, whose path to glory might just become his greatest nightmare.

Adding layers to the mystery are Julia Fox (Uncut Gems), Tim Heidecker (Us), and comedian Jim Jefferies, joined by musical standouts Guapdad 4000 and Grammy nominee Tierra Whack in their feature film debuts.

From the Mind Behind Get Out and Us

Produced by Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions—the minds that brought us Get Out, Us, Candyman, and Nope—HIM builds on a legacy of socially relevant, genre-defying horror. It’s stylish, tense, and shockingly poignant.

Producers Ian Cooper, Win Rosenfeld, Jamal M. Watson, and executive producers David Kern and Kate Oh complete the powerhouse team bringing this eerie vision to life.
