Dark Sports-Horror Preview for The First Him Unveils Sinister Atmosphere
Get ready for a terrifying twist on the world of sports with the upcoming movie Him. Justin Tipping, director of the critically acclaimed Dear White People, is at the helm, and Jordan Peele, the man behind the smash hits like Get Out and Us, serves as producer under his banner Monkeypaw Productions.
The movie stars Marlon Wayans as Isaiah White, a legendary eight-time championship quarterback, and Tyriq Withers as Cameron Cade, a promising young football player on the brink of stardom. However, Cameron's life takes a dark turn when he's viciously attacked by a deranged fan, leaving him with potential career-ending brain trauma.
Just when all seems lost, the ailing star receives a lifeline from his hero, Isaiah White. He's invited to train at Isaiah's secluded compound, where everything appears to be normal. But trust us, nothing is as it seems.
As Cameron's training ramps up, Isaiah starts to show his true colors. His seemingly benevolent mentorship takes a sinister turn, pushing Cameron to the brink and beyond. "No days off, no sleep. We grind," Isaiah tells Cameron early on in the trailer, hinting at the intense physical and mental toll the training will take.
Throughout history, we've seen plenty of sports movies, but Him takes a unique approach by turning familiar sports elements into a bone-chilling horror show. Prepare yourself for a rollercoaster ride of suspense, body horror, and cult-like terrors that will leave you questioning the price of perfection and the dangers of blind adoration.
Joining the cast alongside Withers and Wayans are Julia Fox, Tim Heidecker, and Akeem Hayes. Him will be gracing theater screens on September 19.
Enough with the prep talk, folks. It's time to gear up for a gruesome ride that'll make you think twice about your thirst for success.
