This time, the terror is lurking outside the house.

Universal and Blumhouse will release THE WOMAN IN THE YARD to theaters March 28. Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra (ORPHAN, THE SHALLOWS) from a script by Sam Stefanak, it stars Danielle Deadwyler, Okwui Okpokwasili, Russell Hornsby, Peyton Jackson and Estella Kahiha. According to the official synopsis, Deadwyler plays “Ramona, a woman crippled by grief after she survives a car accident that takes her husband [Hornsby]. Seriously injured, Ramona now must care for their 14-year-old son [Jackson] and 6-year-old daughter [Kahiha] alone in her rural farmhouse. Then one day the woman takes form in their yard. Ramona assumes the woman [Okpokwasili] is lost or demented, but as the woman creeps nearer and nearer to the house, it becomes clear she is no ordinary figure and her intentions are anything but peaceful. Now Ramona must rally to protect herself and her children from the grasp of the woman who simply won’t leave them alone.”
