Selena Kuznikov The trailer for “Apartment 7A,” a prequel to Roman Polanski’s 1968 horror classic “Rosemary’s Baby,” has dropped. “Inventing Anna” and “Ozark” star Julia Garner leads the movie, directed by Natalie Erika James from a script by Skylar James and Christian White.
The film will premiere exclusively on Paramount+ on Sept. 27, ahead of the Halloween season. In “Apartment 7A,” Garner plays Terry Gionoffrio, who in “Rosemary’s Baby” is a recovering drug addict played by Victoria Vetri.
The prequel is set in 1965 New York City, and details what happened in the Bramford building before Rosemary (played by Mia Farrow in the 1968 film) moved in.
Per the official logline: “When a struggling, young dancer suffers a devastating injury, she finds herself drawn in by dark forces when a peculiar, well-connected, older couple promises her a shot at fame.” The cast is rounded out by Dianne Wiest (“Mayor of Kingstown”), Jim Sturgess (“Across the Universe”) and Kevin McNally (the “Pirates of the Caribbean” film series).
