We’re thrilled to exclusively unveil the international poster for the upcoming film, “Return to Silent Hill.” This stunning artwork provides a truly terrifying first glimpse of the iconic villain, Pyramid Head, and sets the stage for the highly anticipated “Silent Hill 2” adaptation.
The film, directed by Christophe Gans (who also helmed the 2006 “Silent Hill” movie), is slated for a theatrical release on January 23, 2026. The newly released poster, a key visual for the film, prominently features the intense gaze of James Sunderland, portrayed by Jeremy Irvine. However, upon closer inspection, a chilling detail emerges: the unmistakable reflection of Pyramid Head, one of Silent Hill’s most iconic and terrifying figures, lurking within the eye.
According to the official synopsis, “Return to Silent Hill” reignites the beloved horror saga on the big screen. The story follows James, who, after receiving a cryptic letter from his long-lost love, Mary, finds himself drawn back to the desolate, darkness-shrouded town of Silent Hill. His desperate search for Mary forces him to confront grotesque monsters and uncover a horrifying truth that threatens to shatter his very sanity.
While this movie offers a standalone narrative, distinct from the previous films “Silent Hill” (2006) and “Silent Hill: Revelation” (2012), director Christophe Gans emphasizes that “Return to Silent Hill” is a faithful adaptation born from profound respect for Konami’s legendary game, Silent Hill 2.
Jeremy Irvine is joined by Hannah Emily Anderson as Mary Crane and Evie Templeton as Laura. Christophe Gans is credited with the screenplay alongside Sandra Vo-Anh and William Schneider.
A teaser trailer for “Return to Silent Hill” has also been released, offering fans a moving preview of the upcoming horror.
