Things get hairy for Christopher Abbott and Julia Garner in the long-anticipated, first teaser trailer for Wolf Man. Leigh Whannell, best known for helming The Invisible Man, directs this reimagining of the classic monster film for Universal Pictures.

Abbott stars as Blake, a San Francisco husband and father, who inherits his remote childhood home in rural Oregon after his own father vanishes and is presumed dead. With his marriage to his high-powered wife, Charlotte (Garner), fraying, Blake persuades Charlotte to take a break from the city and visit the property with their young daughter, Ginger (Matilda Firth). But as the family approaches the farmhouse in the dead of night, they’re attacked by an unseen animal and, in a desperate escape, barricade themselves inside the home as the creature prowls the perimeter. As the night stretches on, however, Blake begins to behave strangely, transforming into something unrecognizable, and Charlotte will be forced to decide whether the terror within their house is more lethal than the danger without.

Whannell directs Wolf Man from a script he co-wrote with Corbett Tuck, as well as Dumb Money’s Lauren Schuker Blum and Rebecca Angelo. The film co-stars Sam Jaeger, Ben Prendergast and Benedict Hardie. Blumhouse is producing the pic.
