I never really expected to make a horror movie, but I’m really pleased with it now I have. “Even though I’m in this I still had to force my managers to sit through it with me when it was finished because I was so scared. I scare really easily so if I’m going to watch horror it has to be with a group of people,” she says. She admits that she finds darker roles more fun to take on as an actress, although she insists that appearing in a horror was not something she had on her agenda prior to Annabelle. You just have to go in and give your performance and just hope the reactions are good.”Īnnabelle: Creation is the first time Sigman has appeared in a horror film, although with past roles in movies and shows including Narcos, The Bridge and Shimmer Lake, it's fair to say she has a CV with a leaning to the darker side of the entertainment spectrum. You never really know how the response to a film is going to be, so you just have to go in and play your part because you have no control over anything else – how the movie’s going to come out, how it’s going to look or any of that.

Perhaps most surprisingly, however, the film has also attracted wide critical appraisal compared to its predecessor which, while commercially successful, was criticised as a lazy, cheap attempt to spin a bit more profit from the James Wan-created horror franchise. The movie pulled in around US$40 million (Dh146,920,000) on its opening weekend, beating initial predictions and taking the number one slot at the box office. Annabelle: Creation, the fourth movie in The Conjuring series and a prequel to Annabelle (2014), lands in our cinemas this weekend having already confounded expectations on its United States launch last week.
