The official trailer for the Him movie is here—and it’s anything but a feel-good sports drama. Produced by Jordan Peele and directed by Justin Tipping (Kicks), Him reimagines football as a violent, mind-bending psychological horror.
Starring Tyriq Withers as rising quarterback Cam Cade, the story follows his desperate comeback after a brutal attack threatens his career. Enter football legend Isaiah White (played by Marlon Wayans), who invites Cam to train at his remote compound with his influencer wife, Elsie White (Julia Fox). But this second chance quickly spirals into something far more dangerous.
HIM Movie: “In This Game, Violence Is Rewarded”
The Him movie trailer quickly shifts tone—from inspirational to unsettling. As training becomes increasingly extreme, Isaiah’s mentorship turns dark.
“In this game, violence is rewarded,” Wayans growls. “So learn to enjoy it.”
The trailer features bloodied rituals, masked figures, cheerleaders with obscured faces, and references to gods and sacrifice. It’s clear: this isn’t just about football—it’s about power, control, and psychological manipulation.
