MGM and Screen Gems have released a new full-length trailer for director Kimberly Peirce's Carrie (2013), the third adaptation of the 1974 Stephen King novel of the same name. The latest incarnation of Carrie stars Chloë Grace Moretz, Julianne Moore and Judy Greer, and opens in U.S. theaters on October 18th.
The quiet suburb of Chamberlain, Maine is home to the deeply religious and conservative Margaret White (Moore) and her daughter, Carrie (Moretz). Carrie is a sweet but meek outcast whom Margaret has sheltered from society. Phys ed teacher Miss Desjardin (Greer) tries in vain to protect Carrie from local mean girls led by the popular and haughty Chris Hargenson (Portia Doubleday), but only Chris' best friend, Sue Snell (Gabriella Wilde), regrets their actions. In an effort to make amends, Sue asks her boyfriend, high school heartthrob Tommy Ross (Ansel Elgort) to take Carrie to prom. Pushed to the limit by her peers at the dance, Carrie unleashes telekinetic havoc.
