Until Dawn is an upcoming American horror film directed by David F. Sandberg and written by Blair Butler and Gary Dauberman. Serving as a live-action spin-off of the 2015 video game developed by Supermassive Games, it is set in the same universe but features an original standalone story that expands the series' mythology. The film stars Ella Rubin, Michael Cimino, Ji-young Yoo, and Odessa A'zion. Peter Stormare, who played Dr. Alan J. Hill in the original game, is confirmed to be playing a different character.

Until Dawn is scheduled to be released in the United States on April 25, 2025.

In January 2024, it was announced that a live-action adaptation based on the video game Until Dawn was in development by Screen Gems and PlayStation Productions, with David F. Sandberg directing and Gary Dauberman writing the screenplay, based on a previous draft by Blair Butler. It was described as "an R-rated love letter to the horror genre, with an ensemble cast". In June, Ella Rubin, Michael Cimino, Ji-young Yoo, and Odessa A'zion joined the cast in undisclosed roles. In August, Maia Mitchell and Belmont Cameli were cast. Peter Stormare who played Dr. Alan J. Hill in the video game, will portray a new character.

Principal photography began in Budapest on August 5, 2024, with Maxime Alexandre serving as the cinematographer, and wrapped on October 4, 2024.

Until Dawn is scheduled to be released in the United States on April 25, 2025.
