Coming Soon

 

Expect to see ANNABELLE the scary doll return to creep out more moviegoers in the near future as the movie passes $250 million at the global hood office. 

 

The doll we love to hate scares her way to the top of 2014’s horror hit list. New Line Cinema’s “Annabelle” has now taken in over $250 million at the worldwide box office, with a tally of $250.2 million to date.  The announcement was made today by Dan Fellman, President, Domestic Distribution, and Veronika Kwan Vandenberg, President, International Distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures.

 

The supernatural thriller, from director John R. Leonetti and producers Peter Safran and James Wan, has taken in $83.8 million domestically and $166.4 million internationally, making it the highest grossing horror film of 2014 in both arenas, as well as worldwide.

 

Fellman, in making the announcement, stated, “‘Annabelle’ has continued to entertain audiences who love the horror genre.  Congratulations to our partners at New Line and the talented filmmakers and cast who made this film such a far-reaching fan favorite.”

 

Kwan Vandenberg added, “John, James and Peter delivered a film that has resonated globally, giving moviegoers everywhere the kind of exhilaration that keeps them coming back for more.”

 

 She terrified you in “The Conjuring,” but this is where it all began for Annabelle. 

 

Capable of unspeakable evil, the actual doll exists locked up in an occult museum in Connecticut—visited only by a priest who blesses her twice a month. 

 

New Line Cinema’s supernatural thriller “Annabelle” begins before the evil was unleashed.

 

John Form has found the perfect gift for his expectant wife, Mia—a beautiful, rare vintage doll in a pure white wedding dress.  But Mia’s delight with Annabelle doesn’t last long.  On one horrific night, their home is invaded by members of a satanic cult, who violently attack the couple.  Spilled blood and terror are not all they leave behind.  The cultists have conjured an entity so malevolent that nothing they did will compare to the sinister conduit to the damned that is now...Annabelle.

 

Annabelle Wallis (“X-Men: First Class”) and Ward Horton (“The Wolf of Wall Street”) star as the Forms. Oscar nominee Alfre Woodard (“Cross Creek,” “Twelve Years a Slave”) stars as Evelyn, a neighbor who owns a bookstore.   Rounding out the cast are Kerry O’Malley (TV’s “Those Who Kill”) and Brian Howe (“Devil’s Knot”) as neighbors Sharon and Pete Higgins; Tony Amendola (TV’s “Once Upon A Time”) as Father Perez; and Eric Ladin (TV’s “Boardwalk Empire,”) as Detective Clarkin.

 

“Annabelle” reunites the filmmakers behind 2013’s hugely successful supernatural thriller “The Conjuring.” John R. Leonetti, who served as cinematographer on “The Conjuring,” directed the film.   James Wan, director of the global hit, produced “Annabelle” with Peter Safran.

 

Gary Dauberman wrote the script.  Richard Brener, Walter Hamada, Dave Neustadter and Hans Ritter served as the executive producers.  Also joining Leonetti behind the scenes were director of photography James Kniest, production designer Bob Ziembicki, editor Tom Elkins, and costume designer Janet Ingram.  Joseph Bishara composed the score.

 

New Line Cinema presents an Atomic Monster/Safran Company Production, “Annabelle.”  The film has been rated R for intense sequences of disturbing violence and terror.  It is being distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment company.
