From “Beetlejuice” to “Stranger Things,” Winona Ryder has grounded herself as an actress in the weird and wonderful. From her very first role in the 1985 film “Lucas,” Ryder has made her name for herself, starring in franchises like “Star Trek” and “Friends.” The “Stranger Things” star is more famously known for her work with director Tim Burton, but her latest project is neither gothic and strange nor part of the upside-down. Her new film, “Gone In The Night” (formerly known as “The Cow”), is a mysterious thriller, directed by Eli Horowitz, the American director is best known as the co-creator of the Amazon Prime series “Homecoming” starring Julia Roberts and Janelle Monáe.

Horowitz wrote the project alongside Matthew Derby, most known for his work on the podcast series “Sandra.” Here’s the official synopsis:
Upon arriving at a remote cabin in the redwoods, Kath and her boyfriend find a mysterious young couple already there — the rental has apparently been double-booked. With nowhere else to go, they decide to share the cabin with these strangers. When her boyfriend mysteriously disappears with the young woman, Kath becomes obsessed and enlists an unlikely supporter with finding an explanation for their sudden breakup— but the truth is far stranger than she could have ever imagined.
John Gallagher Jr. will be starring opposite Ryder as Kath’s boyfriend who goes missing at the cabin. Gallagher Jr. is most known for his work in the HBO series “Westworld” and “The Newsroom.” The cast also includes Owen Teague, Brianne Tju, and Dermot Mulroney. “Gone In The Night” will premiere in theaters on July 15, 2022, and will be available on digital and on-demand on August 2, 2022.
