Joey King is reminding us to be careful what we wish for thanks to the trailer for her new movie Wish Upon!
The upcoming horror film also stars Sydney Park and Shannon Purser, among others, and things turn deadly when Joey‘s character starts making some wishes that really come true.
The film is about a 17-year-old girl named Clare (King) who is bullied in high school, embarrassed by her manic, hoarder father Jonathan (Ryan Phillippe) and ignored by her longtime crush. All that changes when her father comes home with an old music box whose inscription promises to grant its owner seven wishes.
While Clare is initially skeptical of this magic box, she can’t help but be seduced by its dark powers, and is thrilled as her life radically improves with each wish. Clare finally has the life she’s always wanted and everything seems perfect – until the people closest to her begin dying in violent and elaborate ways after each wish. Clare realizes that she must get rid of the box, but finds herself unable and unwilling to part with her new-and-improved life – leading her down a dark and dangerous path.
“Please, Tommy, please…. pass the salt. Good to see these guys back together!!! #DeathCure,” he captioned the Instagram pic, which was taken inside a restaurant.
The cast is finally back to filming the final movie, The Death Cure, after Dylan was injured on set last year. It is scheduled to be released on January 12, 2018.
Wish Upon has finally shared the first trailer for the upcoming horror movie!
Joey King and Ryan Phillippe star in the film, which follows high schooler Clare Shannon as she deals with school bullies, her hoarder father and the aftermath of her mother’s suicide.
Things quickly change when she discovers a mystical music box that promises to fulfill seven wishes. Even as Clare watches in horror as her wants have deadly consequences, she’s desperate to hold onto her new life and power.

The 28-year-old actor opened up about the Scorch, his cast, eating and more. Check it:
On Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials: “We [the cast] all get along pretty well. It’s surprising because we are all extremely different. But I think what unites us is our love for acting and this movie. We care deeply about this movie, our fans, and our group. We all push each other to do the best job possible every day.”
On trying out local fare: “London was great! I was able to try some of the local fare such as pie n’ mash with liquor, and fish and chips. [I] love trying the local food whenever I’m traveling!”
On his role in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt: “[I play] Dong Nguyen, [who is] a recent immigrant to America [who] has more in common with Kimmy — a woman who has lived in an underground bunker her entire life–than anyone else. He also is romantically attached to Kimmy until the end of the first season, where their relationship gets in a little predicament. He’s a joy to play especially because the writing on the show is so good.”
