Conor Allyn has a brand-new horror movie on the way titled In The Fire. Interestingly enough, the film also stars Amber Heard, and fans can see her in the first In The Fire trailer shared below.
Of course, fans have been curious what direction Amber Heard’s career would be taking following her lawsuit with her ex-husband, actor Johnny Depp. For starters, many speculated if she would be fired from the production of Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, but she was ultimately kept onboard. Now it looks like her career is continuing to expand with the upcoming film In The Fire.
The official synopsis for the film is as follows:
“A doctor from New York travels to a remote plantation in the 1890s to care for a disturbed boy who seems to have inexplicable abilities. She begins treating the child, but in doing so ignites a war of science versus religion with the local priest who believes the boy is possessed by the Devil and is the reason for all the village’s woes.”
Here’s the official trailer for In The Fire:
Amber Heard had this to say about the movie prior to the SAG-AFTRA strike:
“The film is a meditation on the almost supernatural powers of love told through a strong-willed and independent woman at the turn of the 20th century.”
Heard added:
“I feel honored to be part of this labor of love and to be the lead in [director] Conor Allyn’s vision. I feel lucky to be surrounded by such an amazing cast. They’re as dedicated and magical as the characters they play.”
It’s certainly a different style of film than fans are used to seeing Amber Heard in. Especially with a DC blockbuster like Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom on the way. Though she isn’t a complete stranger in the horror genre, having previously appeared in Zombieland and John Carpenter’s The Ward.
Amber Heard’s new movie In The Fire will be released via digital, VOD, and theaters on October 13, 2023. Stay tuned to ScreenGeek for any additional updates on In The Fire of Amber Heard’s upcoming projects as we have them.
