Sony Pictures has debuted a brand-new TV spot for Flatliners featuring the return of Kiefer Sutherland’s Nelson Wright from the original 1990 movie. The reboot/follow-up opens in North America on September 29. Check out the Flatliners TV spot below!

The new Flatliners movie stars Academy Award nominee Ellen Page (June, Inception), Diego Luna (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Milk), Nina Dobrev (The Vampire Diaries, The Perks of Being a Wallflower), James Norton (Happy Valley, Grantchester) and Kiersey Clemens (Dope, Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising).

In Flatliners, five medical students, hoping to gain insight into the mystery of what lies beyond the confines of life, embark on a daring and dangerous experiment. By stopping their hearts for short periods of time, each triggers a near-death experience. As the investigation becomes more and more perilous, they are forced to confront the sins of their pasts, as well as contend with the paranormal consequences of trespassing to the other side.

Flatliners is being helmed by Niels Arden Oplev, best known for directing the original Swedish version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. The film boasts a screenplay from Source Code writer Ben Ripley and has David Blackman and Laurence Mark producing.

The original Flatliners, released in 1990, was directed by Joel Schumacher from a script by Peter Filardi. Starring Kiefer Sutherland, Julia Roberts, William Baldwin, Oliver Platt, and Kevin Bacon, it grossed $61 million in its original theatrical run.
