Only venturing outdoors in the evening, Katie gets involved in a romantic relationship with her longtime crush, played by Schwarzenegger. Now Thorne’s character must balance the risks of being exposed to sunlight with the benefits of living a normal life with her soulmate.
The film’s first trailer explores the movie’s themes ahead of its Mar. 30 theatre release date.
