Apartment 7A Synopsis
Paramount+ today announced that the all-new original film APARTMENT 7A, a psychological thriller starring Golden Globe winner Julia Garner (Ozark) and directed by Natalie Erika James (Relic), will premiere this fall exclusively on Paramount+ in the US and in select international markets. Set in 1965 New York City, the film tells the story prior to the legendary horror classic Rosemary’s Baby, exploring what happened in the apartment before Rosemary moved in. When a struggling, young dancer (Garner) suffers a devastating injury, she finds herself drawn in by dark forces when a peculiar, well-connected, older couple promises her a shot at fame. The film also stars two-time Academy Award winner Dianne Wiest (MAYOR OF KINGSTOWN), Jim Sturgess (Across the Universe), and Kevin McNally (Pirates of the Caribbean film series). Additional supporting cast includes Marli Siu (Everything I Know About Love), Andrew Buchan (All the Money in the World), Rosy McEwen (Blue Jean), and Kobna Holdbrook-Smith (Wonka).
Surprise! I didn’t think we would get a Rosemary’s Baby prequel this year, or ever, did you? I was interested in this until that tidbit dropped, and it instantly turned me off. Why does this have to be tied to anything? Ugh, how disappointing. Hopefully, this is good enough to ignore that tidbit, and it is not shoved in our faces. The sad reality is that this originally wasn’t tied to that film, and without the connection, it might not have been made. Lame. Does anyone remember this 2014 remake? I sure didn’t.
Apartment 7A will debut on Paramount+ this fall.
