Directed by Jeff Wadlow (Truth or Dare;
Fantasy Island) and co-written with Greg Erb and Jason Oremland, Imaginary mines
the idea of children's imaginary friends for scares. The film
stars DeWanda Wise as a woman who grows increasingly suspicious when her
young stepdaughter becomes attached to a stuffed bear.
Tom Payne, Taegan Burns, Pyper Braun, Veronica Falcon and
Betty Buckley also star.
Imaginary is in UK/ROI cinemas from March 8th, 2024.
Check out the trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
When Jessica (DeWanda Wise) moves back into her childhood home with her family, her youngest stepdaughter Alice (Pyper Braun) develops an eerie attachment to a stuffed bear named Chauncey she finds in the basement. Alice starts playing games with Chauncey that begin playful and become increasingly sinister.
As Alice’s behaviour becomes more and more concerning, Jessica intervenes only to realise Chauncey is much more than the stuffed toy bear she believed him to be.
