Disney has announced that the upcoming Halloween film, “Matriarch”, is coming to Disney+ in many countries around the world, including Canada, Australia and New Zealand, on Friday 21st October 2022, which is the same day the film is also released on Hulu in the United States.

After an overdose nearly takes her life, Laura Birch (Jemima Rooper) escapes from the high-stakes pressure of the advertising world to return to her roots. Accepting an invitation home from her estranged mother (Kate Dickie), Laura hopes the time away in the secluded English village will help calm the demons raging inside of her. She soon discovers that the locals of the town are all protecting an unspeakably dark secret—a secret that involves not only her mother but her own terrifying destiny as well.

The film stars Jemima Rooper, Kate Dickie, Sarah Paul, Franc Ashman, and Keith David Bartlett.

“Matriarch” was written and directed by Ben Steiner. Executive producers include David Worthen Brooks, Arbi Pedrossian, and Jenna Cavelle with production services by Sharp House producers Ian Sharp and Eoin O’Faolain, and co-producer Alexa Waugh. The film is developed and produced by 20th Digital Studio.

The movie hasn’t yet been confirmed for a release in other countries like the UK and Ireland, but hopefully, this one lands just in time for Halloween.
