Get ready to no-clip into a new dimension! A24 is officially bringing the viral internet sensation 'Backrooms' to the big screen, with a theatrical release set for May 29, 2026. The film is a science fiction horror entry, promising to immerse audiences in the eerie, endless, liminal spaces that have captivated millions online.

Remarkably, the movie is directed by Kane Parsons, the visionary 19-year-old (now 20) filmmaker behind the massively popular YouTube web series 'Kane Pixels' Backrooms,' making him the youngest director in A24's history. The screenplay for this postmodern haunted house movie is penned by Will Soodik and Roberto Patino. The stellar cast features Academy Award nominee Chiwetel Ejiofor, Renate Reinsve, Mark Duplass, Finn Bennett, Lukita Maxwell, and Avan Jogia.

The film draws inspiration from the 2019 4chan creepypasta and Parsons' subsequent found-footage series, which has garnered nearly 100 million views on YouTube since its debut in January 2022. The plot follows a therapist who must venture into an unknown, extra-dimensional reality after her patient mysteriously goes missing. Producing the film are industry heavyweights like James Wan and Michael Clear for Atomic Monster, Shawn Levy, Dan Levine, and Dan Cohen for 21 Laps Entertainment, Peter Chernin for Chernin Entertainment, and Chris Ferguson for Oddfellows.
