Experience ‘Carrie’s Power In Another New TV Spot

Another television spot has been released from Sony and Screen Gems’ CARRIE reboot. The latest in a very long line of horror remakes is directed by BOYS DON’T CRY’s Kimberly Pierce. She has promised her modernised upgrade will stick close to Stephen King’s legendary source novel, even though Brian DePalma’s supernatural 1976 genre classic was a very faithful adaptation in itself. Chloe Grace Moretz takes on the iconic role previously portrayed by an Oscar-nominated Sissy Spacek.

A reimagining of the classic horror tale about Carrie White, a shy girl outcast by her peers and sheltered by her deeply religious mother , who unleashes telekinetic terror on her small town after being pushed too far at her senior prom. The quiet suburb of Chamberlain, Maine, is home to the deeply religious and conservative Margaret White and her daughter, Carrie. Carrie is a sweet but meek outcast whom Margaret has sheltered from society. Gym teacher Miss Desjardin tries in vain to protect Carrie from local mean girls led by the popular and haughty Chris Hargenson but only Chris’ best friend, Sue Snell, regrets their actions. In an effort to make amends, Sue asks her boyfriend, high school heartthrob Tommy Ross, to take Carrie to prom. Pushed to the limit by her peers at the dance, Carrie unleashes telekinetic havoc.

CARRIE co-stars Judy Greer, Portia Doubleday, Alex Russell, Gabriella Wilde, Ansel Elgort and Julianne Moore. It’s released in cinemas US theaters 18th October and the UK 29th November.
