We're a little surprised to hear that the upcoming Carrie remake will be getting a series of action figures. Thankfully, they are being produced by NECA, who has a history of producing high-quality figures from some of our favorite horror franchises. We have the first photos for you to check out and early release details.
Idle Hands reports that the two 7-inch figures will be available before the movie's opening on March 15th. While a specific release date has not been set, expect them to be available by late February/early March. We've included the first images below, which are likely prototype photos, so the final product may differ slightly.
“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. Gym teacher Miss Desjardin (Greer) tries in vain to protect Carrie from local mean girls led by the popular and haughty Chris Hargenson (Portia Doubleday, Youth in Revolt), but only Chris’ best friend, Sue Snell (Gabriella Wilde, The Three Musketeers), regrets their actions. In an effort to make amends, Sue asks her boyfriend, high school heartthrob Tommy Ross (newcomer Ansel Elgort), to take Carrie to prom. Pushed to the limit by her peers at the dance, Carrie unleashes telekinetic havoc.”
Carrie was directed by Kimberly Peirce, and stars Chloe Moretz, Julianne Moore, Judy Greer, Portia Doubleday, Gabriella Wilde, and Ansel Elgort. You can learn more by checking out the first teaser trailer at: http://dailydead.com/watch-the-first-teaser-trailer-for-carrie/
