‘Hellraiser’ Trailer: Meet the New Pinhead in Hulu’s Horror Reboot
variety.comEJ Panaligan editor Hulu released an official trailer for the upcoming “Hellraiser” reboot, starring Jamie Clayton as the iconic pin-riddled villain, Pinhead.
In the trailer, Pinhead causes havoc for a young woman named Riley, played by Odessa A’zion. The 2022 reboot follows Riley as she struggles with addiction and comes across an ancient puzzle box whose sole purpose is to summon Cenobites, sadistic supernatural beings that come to Earth from another dimension.
The original 1987 film saw Doug Bradley playing the leader of the Cenobites, and only in the later sequels was he then identified as Pinhead.
The “Hellraiser” franchise has spanned across four theatrical films, six straight-to-home movies and multiple comic books. The new film is a new adaptation of Clive Barker’s 1986 novella “The Hellbound Heart,” which Barker also adapted into the original 1987 film.
