Sci-Fi Horror ‘Companion’ from ‘Barbarian’ Team Gets New Release Date

From WB, New Line Cinema and producer Zach Cregger (Barbarian) comes the upcoming Companion, which has received a new release date.

The sci-fi horror movie has shifted from its January 10 theatrical release date to January 31, 2025.

Companion will mark the directorial debut of Drew Hancock, who also wrote the script. At this time, plot details are under wraps. In other words, we have no idea what to expect from this one, but the previously released teaser indicates a very twisted love story ahead.

“New Line Cinema—the studio that brought you The Notebook—and the unhinged creators of Barbarian cordially invite you to experience a new kind of love story,” the team previews.

The film’s cast includes Sophie Thatcher (Heretic, The Boogeyman) alongside Rupert Friend (Separation), Harvey Guillén (“What We Do in the Shadows”), Lukas Gage (“You”), Megan Suri (It Lives Inside), and Jack Quaid (Scream, “The Boys”).

Companion has been rated “R” by the MPA for…

“Strong violence, sexual content, and language throughout.”

BoulderLight’s Raphael Margules and J.D. Lifshitz will also produce along with Vertigo’s Roy Lee. BoulderLight’s Tracy Rosenblum and Vertigo’s Andrew Childs will exec produce.

New Line Cinema presents A BoulderLight Pictures Production, In Association With Vertigo Entertainment/Subconscious. To reiteration, the new Companion release date is January 31, 2025.
