Additionally, the trailer for HIM provides a comprehensive overview of the film’s plot. This summary could border on giving away key details, so approach it with caution if you wish to avoid potential spoilers about HIM.

Jordan Peele, Academy Award-winning filmmaker and producer through Monkeypaw Productions – known for producing critically acclaimed horror films such as Get Out, Us, Candyman, and Nope – unveils a spine-tingling exploration into the dark realms of stardom, worship, and relentless pursuit of perfection, showcasing a captivating dramatic turn from Marlon Wayans (Air, Respect).

Tyriq Withers, a former college wide-receiver known for his roles in “Atlanta” and “I Know What You Did Last Summer”, is cast as Cameron Cade in the story. Cameron Cade is a promising quarterback who has poured all his life and self into football. On the night before the annual scouting Combine, an obsessed fan attacks Cam, causing brain trauma that might end his professional football career.

When all hope seems gone, Cam experiences a glimmer when his idol, Isaiah White (Marlon Wayans), an eight-time Championship quarterback and cultural icon, proposes to tutor Cam at Isaiah’s secluded retreat, which he shares with his well-known spouse Elsie White (Julia Fox from Uncut Gems and No Sudden Move). However, as Cam’s learning intensifies, Isaiah’s charm transforms into something sinister, leading his pupil into a confusing maze that could demand more than Cam ever anticipated.

This movie showcases an engaging ensemble of actors such as the renowned alternative comedy star Tim Heidecker (directing her first film, Us) and Australian stand-up comedian Jim Jefferies (The Jim Jefferies Show), along with MMA fighter Maurice Greene, rap sensations Guapdad 4000, and Grammy-nominated artist Tierra Whack. All three are making their feature film debuts in this production.

This movie is helmed by Justin Tipping, who previously directed “Kicks.” The screenplay is a standout from the Black List, penned by Zack Akers and Skip Bronkie, known for their work on the sci-fi crime series “Limetown.” Additionally, Justin Tipping contributes to the direction. Ian Cooper (of “Nope” and “Us”), Jordan Peele (“Candyman,” “BlacKkKlansman”), Win Rosenfeld (“Candyman,” “Lovecraft Country”), and Jamal M. Watson (“Hala,” “Sprinter”) produce the film under Monkeypaw Productions. David Kern and Monkeypaw’s Kate Oh serve as executive producers for this project.
