Julia Garner-headlined horror Apartment 7A is a covert Rosemary’s Baby prequel

June 26, 2023 by Matt Rodgers

It turns out that Paramount Pictures has made a covert prequel to 1968 horror-classic Rosemary’s Baby.

According to World of Reel, a recent test screening of Apartment 7A turned out to be a prequel to the critically-acclaimed Roman Polanski film, focusing on the woman who died outside the apartment when Mia Farrow’s titular mother-to-be moved into the Bramford building.

Directed by Natalie Erika James, who made one of 2020’s best movies with Relic, Apartment 7A stars Julia Garner (Ozark), Rosy McEwen (Blue Jean), Marli Siu (Alex Rider), Jim Sturgess (One Day), and Dianne Wiest (Edward Scissorhands). 

Produced by John Krasinski, Allyson Seeger, Michael Bay, Andrew Form, and Brad Fuller, the film was completed in October 2022, but has sailed under the radar until word of this positive test-screening emerged. 

Based on Ira Levin’s 1967 novel of the same name, Rosemary’s Baby starred Mia Farrow as a young wife living in a lonely Manhattan apartment block who comes to suspect that her elderly neighbours are members of a Satanic cult intending to use her unborn child for their rituals.

Now that the baby is out of the basket you can expect to hear a little more about Apartment 7A in the coming weeks, but until then let us know what you think about the idea of a Rosemary’s Baby prequel by heading to our social channels @FlickeringMyth…
