From the mind of Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions comes a terrifying new spin on America’s favorite sport. Him, directed by Justin Tipping, is the latest genre-bending horror film that merges the brutality of football with the psychological trauma of fame. It premieres September 19, and trust us—you won’t watch Sunday Night Football the same way again.
🎬 What’s Him About?
Forget locker room drama—this film goes way deeper. Him follows Cameron Cade, a rising football star invited to a remote training compound by iconic, nearly-retired quarterback Isaiah White. But this isn’t your typical mentorship.
What begins as elite athletic training quickly spirals into a blood-soaked nightmare filled with cultish devotion, religious symbolism, and disturbing rituals. Think Get Out meets Any Given Sunday—but with more blood.
“Do you want this?” White asks in the trailer. The answer? It might cost Cade his sanity, and possibly his soul.
👥 Who’s in the Cast of Him?
-
Tyriq Withers (Florida State University football alum) as Cameron Cade
-
Marlon Wayans (White Chicks, Requiem for a Dream) as Isaiah White
-
Julia Fox (Uncut Gems)
-
Tim Heidecker, Jim Jefferies, Akeem Hayes, and Tierra Whack
This all-star lineup of comedians, musicians, and former athletes brings a gritty, offbeat vibe to the twisted locker room tale.
📅 When is Him Coming Out?
Mark your calendars: September 19, 2025.
That’s when Him hits theaters—and maybe your psyche—for a horror-filled kickoff just in time for football season.
🎥 Why You Should Watch the Trailer (With the Lights On)
The teaser is a chilling blend of slow-burn tension, surreal visuals, and heavy symbolism. Cade’s training becomes torturous. Crowds chant like cultists. Jesus Christ morphs into a football god.
If Peele’s past hits (Nope, Us, Get Out) have taught us anything, it’s that the real horror lies in what we celebrate—this time, the glorification of athletic supremacy.
🧠 Final Thoughts: “Greatness” Has a Price in Him
Jordan Peele is back at it—this time with shoulder pads and nightmares. Him promises to redefine the sports genre in horror, questioning what we sacrifice in the name of being the Greatest of All Time (GOAT). Don’t expect a happy ending… unless you enjoy existential terror.
