Content overview: “LaKeith Stanfield and Ben Mendelsohn Unveil ‘Molepeople’ Horror Movie at New York Comic-Co”. Oscar nominee LaKeith Stanfield and Emmy winner Ben Mendelsohn are teaming up for the upcoming horror film ‘Molepeople,’ which was previewed at New York Comic-Con on Friday. The movie follows a man who ventures into the abandoned tunnels beneath New York City and uncovers a twisted society living below the streets. Produced by Paramount Primal and Blumhouse Atomic Monster, the project brings together two major forces in genre filmmaking.
Stanfield’s involvement signals a high-profile lead role, while Mendelsohn adds veteran gravitas to the cast. The setting—real, forgotten subway and utility tunnels under Manhattan—grounds the horror in a recognizable urban legend, making it feel both eerie and plausible. With New York Comic-Con as the launchpad, the film is targeting genre fans who crave psychological terror with a claustrophobic edge.
