Football is an integral part of American culture, driving discussions, commanding television ratings, and generating significant revenue. Yet, beneath its surface lies a darker narrative that many tend to overlook. Renowned horror filmmaker Jordan Peele explores this unsettling theme in his latest project, Him.
Produced under Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions, Him poses a haunting question: What would you be willing to give up to achieve greatness? Following a captivating preview at CinemaCon, Universal has unveiled the first teaser trailer for Him.
Tyriq Withers takes on the role of Cameron Cade, an up-and-coming quarterback whose life revolves around the sport. Just before the scouting combine, Cameron suffers a devastating brain injury inflicted by an unstable fan. This head trauma jeopardizes his future in football and could lead him down a path of turmoil. Cameron finds himself in desperate need of assistance to salvage his dreams.
Introducing Isaiah White, portrayed by Marlon Wayans, a celebrated eight-time championship quarterback and cultural icon. Isaiah invites Cameron to his secluded retreat, which the young athlete eagerly accepts. The chilling teaser presents a glimpse of Cameron’s unraveling psyche as he becomes engulfed in Isaiah’s cultlike environment. Just before the trailer concludes with a harrowing image of Cameron on the football field, Isaiah ominously states, “Then show me,” following a chilling demand for sacrifice.

Julia Fox plays the role of Elsie White, Isaiah’s influential celebrity wife who resides at the compound. The film also features Tim Heidecker, Jim Jefferies, Maurice Greene, Guapdad 4000, and Tierra Whack in supporting roles.
Directed by Justin Tipping, Him has a screenplay co-written by Tipping, Zack Akers, and Skip Bronkie. Peele produces the film alongside Ian Cooper, Win Rosenfeld, and Jamal M. Watson.
Fans of Peele can expect his next directorial effort, his first since 2022’s Nope, to hit theaters on October 23, 2026.
Mark your calendars, as Him will be released in theaters this upcoming football season on September 19.
