Octavia Spencer (Hidden Figures) plays against type in forthcoming horror Ma.
The twisted international trailer has been released and we’re pretty sure you’ll never look at Spencer in the same way again. Watch it below:
Spencer stars as Sue Ann, a loner who keeps to herself in her quiet Ohio town. One day, she is asked by Maggie, a new teenager in town (Diana Silvers, Glass), to buy some booze for her and her friends, and Sue Ann sees the chance to make some unsuspecting, if younger, friends of her own.
She offers the kids the chance to avoid drinking and driving by hanging out in the basement of her home. But there are some house rules: One of the kids has to stay sober. Donāt curse. Never go upstairs. And call her āMa.ā
But as Maās hospitality starts to curdle into obsession, what began as a teenage dream turns into a terrorising nightmare, and Maās place goes from the best place in town to the worst place on earth.
The film also stars Juliette Lewis (August: Osage County) as Maggieās mom, Luke Evans (Beauty and the Beast) as a local dad, Missi Pyle (Gone Girl) as his girlfriend, and McKaley Miller (TVās Hart of Dixie), Corey Fogelmanis (TVās Girl Meets World), Gianni Paolo (TVās Power) and Dante Brown (Lethal Weapon TV series) as Maggieās friends.
Take a look at the poster below:
Ma will be released in UK cinemas on the 31st May 2019.
