Ethan Hawke is back as memorable villain The Grabber in director Scott Derrickson’s Black Phone 2, and this time around he’s not just back… he’s back from the dead.
Black Phone 2 opens in theaters on October 17 from Blumhouse and Universal, and Collider has shared a brand new image of Hawke’s return as The Grabber. Check it out below.
“Four years ago, 13-year-old Finn killed his abductor and escaped, becoming the sole survivor of The Grabber. But true evil transcends death … and the phone is ringing again.
“Four-time Academy Award® nominee Ethan Hawke returns to the most sinister role of his career as The Grabber seeks vengeance on Finn (Mason Thames) from beyond the grave by menacing Finn’s younger sister, Gwen (Madeleine McGraw).
“As Finn, now 17, struggles with life after his captivity, the headstrong 15-year-old Gwen begins receiving calls in her dreams from the black phone and seeing disturbing visions of three boys being stalked at a winter camp known as Alpine Lake.
“Determined to solve the mystery and end the torment for both her and her brother, Gwen persuades Finn to visit the camp during a winter storm. There, she uncovers a shattering intersection between The Grabber and her own family’s history.
“Together, she and Finn must confront a killer who has grown more powerful in death and more significant to them than either could imagine.”
Scott Derrickson returns to direct from a script he co-wrote with C. Robert Cargill. Joe Hill, author of the short story on which the 2021 film was based, executive produces.
