The trailer for “Apartment 7A,” a prequel to Roman Polanski’s 1968 horror classic “Rosemary’s Baby,” has dropped.

Paramount Pictures has dropped a trailer for Apartment 7A, a prequel to Roman Polanski’s 1968 horror classic Rosemary’s Baby.

Terry Gionoffrio, who is a promising young dancer, dreams of fame and fortune in New York City, played by Julia Garner from Ozark. After sustaining a catastrophic injury, an elder, affluent couple (Dianne Wiest and Kevin McNally) welcomes her into their home in the luxurious apartment building Bramford.

It appears that all of her dreams are finally coming true when a Broadway producer (Jim Sturgess, Across the Universe) offers her another chance to fame. Following an evening where she couldn’t fully remember, she begins to doubt the sacrifices she’s willing to make for her career as she realizes that evil is lurking not only in Apartment 7A, but also in Bramford itself.

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. Mia Farrow and John Cassavetes starred in Rosemary’s Baby as a young couple trying to start a family, but are tormented by their strange neighbors. Paramount also produced the 1968 film.

In the trailer, “There’s something wrong with these people,” Garner says ominously in the trailer that shows her character’s concerns mounting. 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.”

Directed by Natalie Erika James from a script by Skylar James and Christian White. Besides Garner, Wiest and McNally, the film also stars Marli Siu (Everything I Know About Love), Andrew Buchan (All the Money in the World), Rosy McEwen (Blue Jean) and Kobna Holdbrook-Smith (Wonka).

The film will premiere exclusively on Paramount+ on Sept. 27, ahead of the Halloween season.

“There’s something wrong with these people,” Garner says ominously in the trailer that shows her character’s concerns mounting.

James (Relic) helmed the film from a script she co-wrote with Christian White and Skylar James that is based on author Ira Levin’s 1967 horror novel, Rosemary’s Baby.

Producers on Apartment 7A are John Krasinski, Allyson Seeger, Michael Bay, Andrew Form and Brad Fuller.

Garner earned three Emmy Awards for her breakout role as Ruth Langmore on the Netflix crime series Ozark. She is set to star in Wolf Man and The Fantastic Four: First Steps, both scheduled for release next year.

Her other previous credits include the series The Americans, Maniac and Inventing Anna, along with such features as The Assistant and The Royal Hotel.

Julia Garner is haunted by the path not taken in horror film “Apartment 7A.”

The “Ozark” and “Inventing Anna” alum leads the Paramount+ feature which is a prequel to “Rosemary’s Baby.” While Garner is definitely not playing a younger Rosemary, her character does occupy the same spooky apartment building that was the center of evil in the Roman Polanski-helmed original film.

“Apartment 7A” is set in 1965 New York City, where the infamous Bramford building has a dark presence. Garner stars as Terry Gionoffrio, an ambitious young dancer whose dreams of fame and fortune are dashed after suffering a devastating injury.

Marli Siu, Andrew Buchan, Rosy McEwen, and Kobna Holdbrook-Smith also star.
