"I found something that can prove what I'm experiencing." Universal has finally revealed the frightening first trailer for The Invisible Man, the new horror sci-fi remake of this classic story, made by acclaimed Australian actor / writer / director Leigh Whannell (who last made the kick ass film Upgrade). Award-winning actress Elisabeth Moss stars in this terrifying modern tale of obsession inspired by Universal's classic monster character. She plays a woman who tries to flee her abusive, controlling scientist husband, only to end up being haunted by him when he suddenly kills himself. The cast also includes Aldis Hodge, Storm Reid, Harriet Dyer, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Benedict Hardie, and Sam Smith. This looks extra creepy, and seriously thrilling, playing up the mysterious horror angle more than anything. And damn does it get intense in the second half! That "someone is sitting in that chair" line should give you the chills.
Here's the first official trailer (+ poster) for Leigh Whannell's The Invisible Man, direct from YouTube:
Trapped in a violent, controlling relationship with a wealthy and brilliant scientist, Cecilia Kass (Moss) escapes in the dead of night and disappears into hiding, aided by her sister (Dyer), their childhood friend (Hodge) and his teenage daughter (Reid). But when Cecilia's abusive ex (Jackson-Cohen) commits suicide and leaves her a generous portion of his vast fortune, Cecilia suspects his death was a hoax. As a series of eerie coincidences turns lethal, threatening the lives of those she loves, Cecilia's sanity begins to unravel as she desperately tries to prove that she is being hunted by someone nobody can see. The Invisible Man is both written & directed by Australian filmmaker Leigh Whannell, director of the films Insidious: Chapter 3 and Upgrade previously; writer for the Saw series, Dead Silence, The Mule. Based on the original H.G. Wells novel of the same name. Produced by Jason Blum and Kylie Du Fresne. Universal debuts Whannell's The Invisible Man in theaters everywhere starting on February 28th, 2020 next year. First impression?

Well, they certainly have the right actress for the lead. Moss's performance looks great in this.

Tension! Very cool looking film. I'm glad it seems there will actually be a villain and not just her mental illness.

That was a pretty good short film I just watched for free. Wait, that was just a trailer? WHAT IS WRONG WITH TODAY'S TRAILERS! Sorry for shouting 🙂

Just like to point out that the director has said this trailer doesn't show much of anything at all: https://twitter.com/LWhannell/status/1192494018573164544

I would have seen this movie, but I just did. Now, I will download it for free in 6 months. Fuck the trailer editor for showing the entire film.

Really wished a different company made this movie. The trailer spoiled the whole movie. The original will never be topped.

He's going to tell you the truth! You have no idea, you don't know what else is in the film, you're making this up and ignoring the fact that the director is refuting that claim directly.

He's gonna say whatever gets asses in the seats. Sure, maybe there's more to the film, maybe they should have left out the fact that the invisible man was her ex husband in the trailer, leave some mystery to it.

Also, she is mentally incapacitated being a Scientologist and all.

Yeah, that's really been an impediment to Tom Cruise.

An interesting take on this and it certainly looks better than Hollow Man. But yeah, I'm with @disqus_TyZFIH509z:disqus on the trailer being OVERLY visible! lol I know everything that happens. Way to kill the suspense.

This looks good to me, original take on an old theme. Looking forward to seeing more

Could be good, hopefully they don't go the route High Tension did. It (mostly) worked for that movie, but will be incredibly disappointing if they do that here.

Coming in Feb. A MOVIE. NO ONE WILL CARE ABOUT OR WILL GO SEE. This looks boring and the standard generic Hollywood Pumpkin Spice Latte Horror.
