In “Apartment 7A,” Garner plays Terry Gionoffrio, who in “Rosemary’s Baby” is a recovering drug addict played by Victoria Vetri. The prequel is set in 1965 New York City, and details what happened in the Bramford building before Rosemary (played by Mia Farrow in the 1968 film) moved in. Per the official logline: “When a struggling, young dancer suffers a devastating injury, she finds herself drawn in by dark forces when a peculiar, well-connected, older couple promises her a shot at fame.”
The cast is rounded out by Dianne Wiest (“Mayor of Kingstown”), Jim Sturgess (“Across the Universe”) and Kevin McNally (the “Pirates of the Caribbean” film series). Supporting cast members include Marli Siu (“Everything I Know About Love”), Andrew Buchan (“All the Money in the World”), Rosy McEwen (“Blue Jean”) and Kobna Holdbrook-Smith (“Wonka”).
Mia Farrow and John Cassavetes starred in “Rosemary’s Baby” as a young couple trying to start a family, but are tormented by their strange neighbors. Paramount produced the 1968 film.
“Apartment 7A” is a Platinum Dunes and Sunday Night production from producers John Krasinski, Allyson Seeger, Michael Bay, Andrew Form and Brad Fuller. Vicki Dee Rock and Alexa Ginsburg serve as executive producers for film.
