MaikaMonroe (Longlegs) and Mary Elizabeth Winstead (Birds of Prey) lead the cast of Hulu’s The Hand That Rocks the Cradle, a fresh new take on the classic 1990s thriller from director Michelle Garza Cervera (Huesera: The Bone Woman). It’s coming exclusively to Hulu and Disney+ later this week, and we’ve got an exclusive clip from the movie.
In The Hand That Rocks the Cradle, Mary Elizabeth Winstead stars as Caitlin Morales, an upscale suburban mom who brings a new nanny, Polly Murphy (Maika Monroe), into her home, only to discover she is not the person she claims to be. Our exclusive clip provides a sneak peek into Polly’s troubled childhood and twisted mind. Watch the clip below, along with the trailer.
The Hand That Rocks the Cradle, which will begin streaming on October 22, is officially rated “R” for “some strong/bloody violence, sexual content and language.”
Raúl Castillo, Martin Starr, Mileiah Vega, Riki Lindhome, and Shannon Cochran also star.
The Hand That Rocks the Cradle is written by Micah Bloomberg based on a screenplay by Amanda Silver. The producers are Michael Schaefer, Mike LaRocca, and Ted Field, and the executive producers are Michael Napoliello, Maria Frisk, and Seth William Meier.
“The studio gave me all the chances to recreate the whole thing and build a new story, new characters, with its own heart. I think that was the best way to honor the original, not try to redo it,” Michelle Garza Cervera told PEOPLE. “We build a whole different kind of thriller.”
