About the Movie

Passenger (2026) is a supernatural horror film directed by acclaimed Norwegian filmmaker André Øvredal (The Autopsy of Jane Doe, Trollhunter) and produced by Walter Hamada and Gary Dauberman. The story follows Maddie (Lou Llobell) and Tyler (Jacob Scipio), a young couple embarking on a cross-country 'van life' adventure. Their trip takes a horrific turn when they stop to help at a gruesome car crash on a deserted highway. They soon discover they didn't leave the crash scene alone; a malevolent, shape-shifting demonic entity known as the Passenger has hitched a ride. Refusing to stop until it claims them both, the entity turns their small camper van into a claustrophobic trap, forcing them to fight for survival and confront their deepest fears on the open road.
