The 2015 horror-thriller game Until Dawn is set to receive a film adaptation, helmed by director David F. Sandberg, known for his work on the Shazam! films. Penned by Gary Dauberman, who contributed to horror hits like It and Annabelle, the adaptation promises to capture the essence of the game’s chilling atmosphere.
Until Dawn, developed by Supermassive Games, boasted a star-studded ensemble cast including Rami Malek and Hayden Panettiere. While it’s uncertain if the original cast will return, the film aims to maintain the R-rated intensity of the game under Sandberg’s direction.
The game’s narrative revolves around a group of friends reuniting after a tragedy, leading to escalating tensions and life-or-death scenarios. Players navigate through choices and quick-time events, determining the fate of each character as they confront terrifying threats like wendigos and a serial killer.
Until Dawn’s interactive nature allowed for multiple endings based on player decisions, adding layers of suspense and unpredictability. As PlayStation Productions expands into cinematic adaptations, Until Dawn marks another exciting venture alongside projects like The Last of Us and Uncharted.
While a release date for the Until Dawn film adaptation is yet to be announced, fans can anticipate a thrilling journey reminiscent of the game’s gripping narrative and spine-chilling atmosphere.
