First trailer, poster and images for Eli Roth’s The House with a Clock in Its Walls

March 27, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

Universal Pictures has debuted the first poster, trailer and images for the upcoming fantasy The House with a Clock in Its Walls. Based on John Bellairs’ 1973 classic novel of the same name, the film is directed by Eli Roth and features a cast that includes Jack Black, Cate Blanchett, Owen Vaccaro, and Kyle MacLachlan; check them out here…

In the tradition of Amblin classics where fantastical events occur in the most unexpected places, Jack Black and two-time Academy Award® winner Cate Blanchett star in The House with a Clock in Its Walls, from Amblin Entertainment. The magical adventure tells the spine-tingling tale of 10-year-old Lewis (Owen Vaccaro) who goes to live with his uncle in a creaky old house with a mysterious tick-tocking heart. But his new town’s sleepy façade jolts to life with a secret world of warlocks and witches when Lewis accidentally awakens the dead.
