For those just joining the Abigail hype train, here’s an official plot synopsis:
“After a group of would-be criminals kidnap the 12-year-old ballerina daughter of a powerful underworld figure, all they have to do to collect a $50 million ransom is watch the girl overnight. In an isolated mansion, the captors start to dwindle, one by one, and they discover, to their mounting horror, that theyโre locked inside with no normal little girl.”
Aaand here’s a reminder about the film’s absolutely stacked cast, which includes:ย Melissa Barrera (Screamย franchise,ย In the Heights), Dan Stevens (Gaslit,ย Legion), Kathryn Newton (Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,ย Freaky), William Catlett (Black Lightning,ย True Story), Kevin Durand (Resident Evil: Retribution, X-Men Origins: Wolverine) and Angus Cloudย (Euphoria,ย North Hollywood) as the kidnappers and Alisha Weir (Roald Dahlโs Matilda the Musical,ย Darklands) as Abigail.
