Peacock has announced Universal Pictures’ M3GAN will stream exclusively on Peacock starting Feb. 24 and the unrated version will also stream exclusively on Peacock.
M3GAN is the latest addition to Peacock’s offering of Blumhouse Films such as You Should Have Left and Sinister, and the Peacock Originals Sick and They/Them.
She’s more than just a toy. She’s part of the family. From the most prolific minds in horror — Atomic Monster’s James Wan, the filmmaker behind the Saw, Insidious, and The Conjuring franchises, and Blumhouse, the producer of the Halloween films, The Black Phone and The Invisible Man — comes a fresh new face in terror.
M3GAN is a marvel of artificial intelligence, a life-like doll programmed to be a child’s greatest companion and a parent’s greatest ally. Designed by brilliant toy-company roboticist Gemma (Allison Williams), M3GAN can listen, watch and learn as she becomes friend and teacher, playmate and protector, for the child she is bonded to.
As Gemma faces pressure at work from her boss (Ronny Chieng) to deliver a finished version of M3GAN, she suddenly becomes the unprepared caretaker of her newly orphaned 8-year-old niece, Cady (Violet McGraw). Gemma decides to pair the M3GAN prototype with Cady in an attempt to resolve both problems—a decision that will have unimaginable consequences.
