Hulu has premiered the official trailer for the remake of the famed 1992 domestic thriller “The Hand That Rocks the Cradle”.
The original Curtis Hanson-directed film starred Rebecca De Mornay as Peyton, a woman getting revenge on a new mother (Annabella Sciorra) whose testimony led to her sex-offender husband’s suicide and Peyton to miscarry.
She infiltrates the woman’s family as the new nanny for their daughter (Madeline Zima) in an effort to take the kid and husband (Matt McCoy) for herself – seducing him and killing anyone who might expose the truth about her motives. Julianne Moore and Ernie Hudson co-starred.
The new take sees Maika Monroe take on the Peyton role alongside Mary Elizabeth Winstead as the mother and Raúl Castillo as the husband. Filming took place earlier this year, with the project wrapping in March.
Michelle Garza Cervera (“Huesera”) directs the new version from a script by Micah Bloomberg (“Homecoming”). Ted Field, Michael Schaefer and Mike Larocca produce.
Post-production was raced through on this one which is set for a premiere on Hulu on October 22nd.
