The Empty Man is based on the Boom! Studios graphic novel of the same name by Cullen Bunn. David Prior wrote and directed the film, which stars James Badge Dale, Stephen Root, Virginia Kull, Marin Ireland, Owen Teague, Joel Courtney, Evan Jonigkeit and Robert Aramayo. The story follows an ex-cop who is looking into the case of a missing girl when he comes across a secretive group attempting to summon a terrifying supernatural entity.

Empty Man will open on Aug. 7, 2020 against Antoine Fuqua‘s sci-fi action movie Infinite starring Chris Evans and an untitled event film from Warner Bros, while Everybody’s Talking About Jamie will open on Oct. 23, 2020 against an “event comedy” — do they still make those anymore? — from Universal.
