Lionsgate’s Facebook page for The Possession has revealed some new art for the supernatural thriller opening on August 31st. This is the third bit of key art we’ve seen come out for the film which was produced by Sam Raimi and Rob Tapert. It certainly works.
Stars Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Natasha Calis and director Ole Bornedal will be participating in some interviews with us at Comic-Con this week. Stay tuned for our chat with this trio.
The film is a retelling of Los Angeles Times writer Leslie Gornstein’s article “Jinx in a Box” about an antique wooden box purchased on eBay which reportedly had been brought to America by a Holocaust survivor after World War II. The box, supposedly containing an evil spirit, brought devastating effects to a series of buyers. Inspired by these real events, “Dibbuk Box” centers around a cursed relic containing mysterious familial tokens that is mistakenly purchased and its new owner must solve its mystery to save her own family.
