After surviving demented surprises in the first film and navigating unfathomable grief (and one very angry wild boar) in the second movie, Maya (Madelaine Petsch) is ready to flip the blood-soaked tables and unmask her tormentors once and for all in The Strangers – Chapter 3.
With the third film in the trilogy now playing in theaters via Lionsgate, Daily Dead had the great pleasure of catching up with executive producer and star Madelaine Petsch to discuss The Strangers – Chapter 3 and reflect on Maya’s harrowing and empowering transformation throughout the trilogy.
