Brandy in the A24 horror film “The Front Room”: watch the trailer

Brandy set to star alongside Kathryn Hunter in A24’s psychological horror thriller The front room.

The film – directed by Max and Sam Eggers (brothers of director Robert Eggers) – is based on Susan Hill’s 2016 short story of the same name. The plot centers on a young pregnant couple who must accommodate an estranged mother-in-law who believes she is possessed by the Holy Spirit.

This will be the Eggers brothers’ debut film and Brandy’s first foray into the horror genre since starring as Karla Wilson in 1998. I still know what you did last summer. She is also set to star in the upcoming Disney+ fantasy musical film. Descendants: The Rise of Red, in which she reprises her role as Cinderella. The singer played the Disney character in her film debut in 1997.

In 2022, Brandy posted a screenshot of a Variety article breaking the The front bedroom news with the caption: “It’s official! THE FRONT ROOM of the Eggers’ Brothers @a24 I can’t wait for you to see this. God you are awesome!!!! I trust you with all my life. Thank you for this incredible opportunity to work with this incredible cast, crew and the studio everyone wants to work with and of course my Eggers family.

If Sam and Max are anything like their brother Robert (The witch And Lighthouse), their debut should definitely have enough scary moments. Andrew Burnap and Neal Huff will also star in the film.

The singer and actress recently made an appearance alongside Monica in Ariana Grande’s video for her performance of their song “The Boys is Mine” and followed it up on Friday (June 21) with a remix featuring all three singers.

The front room is scheduled to hit theaters later this year on September 6.
