Elisabeth Moss faces off against an unseen attacker in chilling trailer for The Invisible Man

The first trailer for The Invisible Man dropped on Thursday.

In the preview for the classic H.G. Wells character’s latest outing, Elisabeth Moss plays Cecilia Kass, a woman who has recently escaped an abusive relationship.

However, things soon take an eerie turn when Cecilia seems to be under attack from an unseen assailant.

The two-and-a-half minute long trailer begins with images of Cecilia fleeing her abusive partner Adrian in the middle of the night.

Meanwhile, we hear Adrian’s lawyer (played by Australian actor Michael Dorman) reading to Cecilia from Adrian’s will, with her ex allegedly having committed suicide after she left him.

‘Per his final wishes, you’re getting five million dollars,’ Adrian’s lawyer tells a shocked Cecilia.

‘Contingent of course on the fine print,’ he continues, ‘you can’t be ruled to be mentally incompetent’.

‘It just doesn’t makes any sense,’ muses Cecilia in voice over, ‘Adrian wouldn’t kill himself.’ 

What follows are an increasingly creepy series of scenes in which Cecilia appears to be ‘haunted’ by an unseen figure.

In one, she stands out in the cold night air, and we can see the breath of an invisible person appear next to her.

In another, a hand print appears in the condensation on a glass door while Cecilia showers. 

Not so invisible now: Adrian is played by English actor Oliver Jackson-Cohen

Cruel and unusual: Later, Moss’ character begins to believe that she’s being deliberately driven insane by her abusive ex

Later, Moss’ character begins to believe that she’s being deliberately driven insane by her abusive ex.

‘I went to his house today. He’s not dead,’ she tells Adrian’s lawyer.

‘He said that wherever I went, he would find me, walk right up to me, and I wouldn’t be able to see him’.

‘He has figured out a way to make himself invisible,’ she insists. 

Eventually, Cecilia’s insistence that her invisible ex is trying to drive her mad lands her in what appears to be a psychiatric facility.
