Poster to Jordan Peele-Produced Horror Movie ‘Him’ Starring Marlon Wayans & Tyriq Withers
With CinemaCon ongoing in Las Vegas, Universal Pictures has released the poster for Him, the next horror movie from Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions. Universal Pictures will release the film in theaters September 19, 2025.
Justin Tipping (Kicks) directs the sports-themed psychological horror tale stars Marlon Wayans, Tyriq Withers, Julia Fox, Tim Heidecker, Jim Jefferies and hip-hop stars Guapdad 4000 and Tierra Whack, both in their feature film debuts.
The screenplay for “HIM” was written by Zack Akers and Skip Bronkie and made the Black List of best unproduced screenplays in 2022. Described on the title sheet as “an anti-sports horror movie,” “HIM” “centers on a promising young football player who is invited to train at the isolated compound of a dynasty team’s aging QB1,” per the official synopsis. Wayans plays the legendary quarterback; Withers is his protégé.
“HIM,” which Universal describes as “a blood-chilling journey into the inner sanctum of fame, power and the pursuit of excellence at any cost,” is produced by Peele, Ian Cooper, Win Rosenfeld and Jamal M. Watson for Monkeypaw Productions. It is executive produced by David Kern and Monkeypaw’s Kate Oh.
