The new trailer gives fans their first glimpse at Myers channeling her inner Sherlock Holmes to solve a murder mystery.
Here’s an official synopsis of the upcoming thriller:
“Five years ago, schoolgirl Andie Bell was murdered by her boyfriend Sal Singh. Case closed. The police know he did it, everyone in town knows he did it. But smart and single-minded Pip Fitz-Amboni isn’t so sure, and she’s determined to prove it. If Sal Singh isn’t a murderer and the real killer is still out there, how far will they go to keep Pip from the truth?”
The role marks Myers’ first major project as a solo lead following her breakthrough role of Enid Sinclair in fan-favorite Wednesday. She’s also currently in production for the second installment of the said Jenna Ortega-starrer Netflix gig.
