Cobweb image shows Lizzy Caplan in Seth Rogen-produced horror film

A new image from the horror film Cobweb, produced by Seth Rogen, shows the character played by Lizzy Caplan

Lizzy Caplan, who can currently be seen in the Paramount+ streaming series version of Fatal Attraction, stars in the upcoming horror film Cobweb, which Lionsgate will be giving a theatrical release on July 21st. In the build-up to the film’s release, an image from it has been unveiled, and this one features Caplan’s character. You can check it out at the bottom of this article.

Four and a half years have gone by since it was announced that Lionsgate – a studio that had once been a prominent force in the horror genre, with releases like The Devil’s Rejects, Cabin Fever, the Hostel films, and of course the Saw franchise – was developing a genre project called Cobweb with the intention of taking back their “ownership” of horror. Our chance to see just how impressive and unnerving the movie turned out to be is now just two months away.

Directed by Samuel Bodin, who created Netflix’s short-lived French horror series Marianne, from a screenplay by Chris Thomas Devlin (Leatherface), Cobweb has the following synopsis: Eight-year-old Peter is plagued by a mysterious, constant tap, tap from inside his bedroom wall – a tapping that his parents insist is all in his imagination. As Peter’s fear intensifies, he believes that his parents could be hiding a terrible, dangerous secret and questions their trust. And for a child, what could be more frightening than that?

We previously saw a synopsis that said a boy’s abusive parents have always told him the voices he hears in the walls of his house are only in his head. But when he discovers that they’re real, he conspires to let them out.

Caplan is joined in the Cobweb cast by Antony Starr (The Boys), Cleopatra Coleman (Infinity Pool), and Woody Norman (C’mon C’mon).

The film was produced by Point Grey’s Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, and James Weaver, along with Vertigo Entertainment’s Roy Lee. Vertigo’s Andrew Childs serves as executive producer with Jonathan McCoy and Josh Fagen, who oversaw the project for Point Grey. Jim Miller and Meredith Wieck oversaw the project for Lionsgate.
