The highly anticipated horror prequel 'The First Omen' has released its first official trailer on January 3. Directed by Arkasha Stevenson, the film, which is a prequel to the 1976 horror classic 'The Omen', is set to bring a new level of terror to audiences with its storyline centered around a young American woman in Rome. As she begins her life of service to the church, she encounters a dark force that leads her to question her faith and stumble upon a conspiracy aiming to bring about the birth of evil. The trailer's release has been teased by several Twitter accounts, including official film and entertainment news outlets, all heralding the arrival of the trailer and the film's release in theaters on April 5. The trailer has been described as terrifying, with a reverse soundbite that pays homage to the original film, and stars Nell Tiger Free and Bill Nighy.
