We're less than five months out from the release of director Corin Hardy's THE NUN, a spin-off from THE CONJURING 2, so we should start seeing more substantial marketing efforts any day now. But for the moment, the best we have is a teaser image that Entertainment Weekly got the first look at, which can now be seen below.
The teaser image is really nothing new, it's just an image of the titular demonic nun herself. But I'm sure that will be enough to creep out most people who get a glimpse of it.
Producer James Wan wrote THE NUN with Gary Dauberman, the go-to guy for additions to the CONJURING universe: he previously wrote THE CONJURING spin-offs ANNABELLE and ANNABELLE: CREATION. The story for this one starts when
a young nun at a cloistered abbey in Romania takes her own life, with a priest with a haunted past and a novitiate on the threshold of her final vows sent by the Vatican to investigate. Together they uncover the order’s unholy secret and confront a malevolent force in the form of the same demonic nun from “The Conjuring 2.”
Demian Bichir stars as Father Burke, with Taissa Farmiga as the deceased nun, Bonnie Aarons as the demonic nun, Jonas Bloquet as a villager, Charlotte Hope as Sister Victoria, and Ingrid Bisu as Sister Oana.
Give THE NUN a look below while we continue to wait for a trailer. The film's release is scheduled for September 7th.
