Annabelle is an upcoming 2014 American supernatural horror film directed by John R. Leonetti, produced by James Wan, and written by Gary Dauberman. It is both a prequel to and spin-off of The Conjuring.[4] The film stars Annabelle Wallis and Ward Horton. The film will be released worldwide on October 3, 2014[5]

Plot

John Gordon has found the perfect gift for both his pregnant wife Mia and their unborn child—Annabelle, a beautiful and rare vintage doll in a pure white wedding dress. Unfortunately, the family's delight with the doll is short-lived. On one horrific night, their home is invaded by members of a satanic cult, who violently attack John and Mia. Spilled blood and terror are not all they leave behind. The cultists have conjured an entity, which is so malevolent that nothing they did will compare to the sinister conduit to the damned that is now... Annabelle.

Cast

Production

On November 8, 2013, a spin-off film of The Conjuring, featuring Annabelle the Doll from the film, was announced to be in development by Warner Bros. and New Line Cinema. It is based on a true story that was also investigated by Ed and Lorraine Warren.[9] With Peter Safran and James Wan to produce, John R. Leonetti was set to direct the film from a script written by Gary Dauberman.[4] On January 15, 2014, news confirmed that Annabelle Wallis and Ward Horton had joined the lead cast of the film.[6] Two more actors, Eric Ladin and Brian Howe, joined the film in late January before award-winning veteran Alfre Woodard also joined the cast.[7][8]

Filming

Principal photography began on January 27, 2014 at The Book Shop in Covina.[7][10][11][12] On February 25, 2014, filming continued at an apartment in South Normandie Avenue where the 55-member crew shot for several days.[13]

Distribution

The first trailer for the film was released on July 17, 2014.[14] The second trailer, the first full-length trailer for the film, was released on August 22, 2014.[15]

Release

Warner Bros. has set the film for an October 3, 2014 worldwide release.[5] It will be released in over 30 foreign markets on it's opening weekend.[16]
