Release of horror film Other Mommy

Overview

The supernatural psychological horror film ‘Other Mommy’, directed by Rob Savage and based on the novel ‘Incidents Around the House’ by Josh Malerman, is preparing for international theatrical releases.

Universal Pictures has released new promotional material, including a trailer and poster. Produced by James Wan’s Blumhouse and Atomic Monster, the film stars Jessica Chastain in dual roles as a mother and a sinister entity. The plot follows eight-year-old Bela, who encounters the entity—which she calls ‘Other Mommy’—in her home amidst her parents' marital struggles. The entity is described as bearing an ‘uncanny resemblance’ to her mother and emerging from a bedroom closet.

The cast includes Arabella Olivia Clark as Bela, Jay Duplass as the father, Arian Moayed, Karen Allen, and Dichen Lachman. The film is rated R for bloody violence and language.

While the film was previously noted for a general October 2026 window, new details specify a United States theatrical release on October 9, 2026. In Brazil, release dates are scheduled for October 8 and October 29, 2026. The film is also set to be released in Japan on November 20, 2026. Some reports refer to the film by the title ‘Mammina’.
