Journey into the dark side of the pursuit of excellence when HIM makes its streaming debut December 19 exclusively on Peacock.
From producer Jordan Peele, the psychological horror film stars Marlon Wayans (Scary Movie) and Tyriq Withers (I Know What You Did Last Summer).
Rising-star quarterback Cameron Cade has devoted his life, and identity, to football. On the eve of professional football’s annual scouting Combine, Cam is attacked by an unhinged fan and suffers a potentially career-ending brain trauma.
Just when all seems lost, Cam receives a lifeline when his hero, Isaiah White, a legendary eight-time Championship quarterback and cultural megastar, offers to train Cam at Isaiah’s isolated compound that he shares with his celebrity influencer wife.
But as Cam’s training accelerates, Isaiah’s charisma begins to curdle into something darker, sending his protégé down a disorienting rabbit hole that may cost him more than he ever bargained for.
Justin Tipping directs from a script he co-wrote with Zack Akers and Skip Bronkie.
Julia Fox (Uncut Gems), Tim Heidecker (Us), Jim Jefferies (“Legit”), and Naomi Grossman (“American Horror Story”) round out the cast.
Meagan Navarro wrote in her review, “Despite a stellar cast and a strong concept executed with vibrant style, HIM fumbles in integrating its visceral symbolism with horror and storytelling.”
