American actress and singer-songwriter Brandy is returning for a new horror movie.
“The Front Room” centers on Belinda and Norman, whose lives become chaotic upon the arrival of the man’s mother.
In recent creative ventures, such as the most recent A24 coproduction that is currently playing in US theaters, Brandy claims to have felt a sense of liberation.
“I love the fact that you get to be scared and you get to put together these scenes that scare other people and you bring life to a character,” the 45-year-old explains.
“And I remember having so much fun back then just acting in the beloved film ‘I Still Know What You Did Last Summer.'” I’ve heard they’re working on a new one, and I would adore to be a part of that. I just love the horror genre. I don’t really love horror films, but I love the horror genre.”
If Brandy doesn’t really love horror film, her performance in the 1998 teen movie remains a classic.
In “The Front Room,” she shot some dark scenes. For her, decompressing after starring in such movies is key.
“You compartmentalize everything, and you try to break everything down and just step away from it, because I do go to some dark places in this film, but I come out alright.”
The one-hour-34-minute film is loosely based on Susan Hill’s 2016 short story.
It was filmed in an infamous and abandoned house in New Jersey.
‘The Front Room’ will release in the UK on 25 October.
