by · Bloody Disgusting

The second trailer has arrived for Scott Beck and Bryan Woods’ upcoming theological horror movie Heretic, and its gives the spotlight to Hugh Grant‘s sinister villain. As if that’s not enough, the new trailer also brings a new release date.

A24 will now release Heretic in theaters on November 8, 2024. That bumps the film up a full week from its original November 15 theatrical date.

Wake up and smell the blueberry pie below…

Hugh Grant (D&D: Honor Among Thieves), Chloe East (The Fabelmans) and Sophie Thatcher (“Yellowjackets”) lead the cast of the upcoming horror movie. In the film…

“Two young missionaries are forced to prove their faith when they knock on the wrong door and are greeted by a diabolical Mr. Reed, becoming ensnared in his deadly game of cat-and-mouse.”

Heretic made its world premiere earlier this month at TIFF, which resulted in the first reviews hitting the internet. One thing that critics agreed on: Hugh Grant shines as the devious Mr. Reed. The new Heretic trailer below is only a tease of his style of madness.

Scott Beck and Bryan Woods wrote A Quiet Place with director John Krasinski, and they just wrote/directed the high concept Adam Driver dinosaur movie 65 last year. The duo also wrote/directed Haunt and penned the Stephen King horror film The Boogeyman.

As a reminder, the new Heretic release date is November 8.
