We are coming up to the anniversary of the A live-action film adaptation of Until Dawn is being announcedand although there is no trailer yet (although it is expected to be out next April), Sony At least he updated you on the movie.

Bucks continued, “We then expanded into the Dawn universe using the concept of a group of friends who encounter a number of terrifying dangers to tell a new story that is truly visionary and terrifying. ” Basically, you can probably place a safe bet on any of the main characters from the original game returning, but probably in cameo form. We know that Peter Stormare is back as his character from the game, Dr. Hill, and the actor appeared in a video saying that he is “so happy to be a part of this movie, because the whole thing a love letter to horror. and it completely respects the spirit of the game.”
He also noted that the film would be filled with “new characters and victims in a new story full of twists and turns.” I don't think this is a bad move, honestly – adaptations just don't usually work, and last year's Fallout was great thanks to its completely original concept , so even if you're disappointed, you're probably better off. .
