The first official In the Fire trailer is here, previewing the new thriller starring Amber Heard.
“The film is a meditation on the almost supernatural powers of love told through a strong-willed and independent woman at the turn of the 20th century,” said Heard in a statement prepared prior to the SAG-AFTRA strike. “I feel honored to be part of this labor of love and to be the lead in Conor Allyn’s vision. I feel lucky to be surrounded by such an amazing cast. They’re as dedicated and magical as the characters they play.”
The film stars Heard as a doctor from New York who travels to a remote plantation in the 1890s to care for a boy. In the Fire is directed by Conor Allyn, from a script written by Allyn, Pascal Borno, and Silvio Muraglia.

“A doctor from New York travels to a remote plantation in the 1890s to care for a disturbed boy who seems to have inexplicable abilities,” reads the official synopsis of the film. “She begins treating the child, but in doing so ignites a war of science versus religion with the local priest who believes the boy is possessed by the Devil and is the reason for all the village’s woes.”
In the Fire is slated to premiere on October 13, 2023, where it will appear in theaters, digitally, and on demand.
