Halle Berry steps into the chilling world of horror with her latest film, ‘Never Let Go,’ directed by the acclaimed Alexandre Aja (‘Crawl,’ ‘The Hills Have Eyes’).

Set for release on September 20, 2024, this psychological thriller/horror film promises to delve into themes of survival, motherhood, and the supernatural, showcasing Berry’s versatility as an actress.

‘Never Let Go’ introduces audiences to a post-apocalyptic scenario where an evil force has taken over the world outside a family’s doorstep. Berry plays a mother whose only protection for her twin sons is their home and the sacred bond they share. This bond is not just metaphorical; the family literally tethers themselves together with ropes, a survival tactic to ensure they never let go of each other, physically or metaphorically. The film’s intensity escalates when skepticism about the evil’s existence creeps in, threatening to break this protective bond.

The narrative, rich with suspense, explores the lengths a mother will go to protect her children, set against a backdrop of supernatural horror. Berry’s performance, as described in various previews, captures the essence of motherhood under siege, blending raw emotion with the survival instincts of a mother in a world turned hostile. Her character’s dedication to her sons, teaching them survival skills like hunting, underscores the film’s theme of familial protection amidst chaos.

‘Never Let Go’ marks Berry’s return to the horror genre and promises to deliver a gripping tale under Aja’s direction, who is known for his work in the horror and thriller genres.

Netflix has unveiled the first-look images of its highly anticipated thriller, ‘Rebel Ridge,’ starring Aaron Pierre. The film is helmed by Jeremy Saulnier, best known for his work on ‘Green Room’ and ‘Hold the Dark.’

In ‘Rebel Ridge,’ Aaron Pierre takes on the role of Terry Richmond, an ex-Marine who finds himself embroiled in a web of small-town corruption. The film follows Terry as he attempts to post bail for his cousin, only to find himself in a violent standoff with the local police chief. The film promises to be a thrilling and action-packed ride, with a plot that explores themes of corruption, morality, and the lengths one man will go to protect his family.

The supporting cast of ‘Rebel Ridge’ includes a talented ensemble of actors, including Don Johnson, AnnaSophia Robb, David Denman, Emory Cohen, Steve Zissis, Zsané Jhé, Dana Lee, and James Cromwell.

The production of ‘Rebel Ridge’ was not without its challenges. The film was initially set to star John Boyega, but he left the project mid-shoot due to family reasons. Aaron Pierre was then cast to replace Boyega, and the production resumed with Pierre taking on the lead role. “The very first moment I met with Aaron, the very first moment I read the script, which I read within minutes of it being sent to me, and I finished it in maybe 90 minutes, it was undeniable for me,” Saulnier shared in a statement.

‘Rebel Ridge’ is set to premiere on Netflix on September 6, 2024.
