Chloe Grace Moretz’s ‘Carrie’ Unleashed In First Featurette

Anticipation is creeping up for the release of Screen Gems’ modernised take on Stephen King’s iconic horror novel, CARRIE. BOYS DON’T CRY’s Kimberly Pierce is at the helm of the remake of 1976 classic previously adapted by Brian DePalma. It sees Chloe Grace Moretz as the tortured telekinetic teen Carrie White, the high-school outcast, persistently bullied at high-school, as well as at home by her devoutly religious mother Margaret. They’re all about to witness her wrath when pushed too far on Prom Night!

A band new featurette has been released and it features new footage not seen in any of the previous trailers.

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. Brian De Palma’s 1976 film version of CARRIE earned Oscar nominations for stars Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie.

CARRIE co-stars Judy Greer, Portia Doubleday, Alex Russell, Gabriella Wilde, Ansel Elgort and Julianne Moore. The horror film hits the US from 18th October and the UK on the 29th November.
