In the chilling psychological thriller "Joshua," directed by George Ratliff, a seemingly perfect Manhattan family begins to unravel from within. Brad and Abby Cairn, played by Sam Rockwell and Vera Farmiga, are overjoyed by the arrival of their newborn daughter, Lily. Yet, their nine-year-old son, Joshua, portrayed with unnerving precision by Jacob Kogan, does not share their enthusiasm. An exceptionally gifted and eerily mature child, Joshua resents the new baby and subtly begins to manipulate his parents' fragile world. As Abby struggles with postpartum depression and Brad becomes increasingly suspicious, Joshua’s calculated behavior escalates from quiet defiance to something far more sinister. The family’s elegant Upper East Side home becomes a pressure cooker of tension, with Celia Weston and Michael McKean appearing as concerned grandparents. This taut, slow-burn thriller masterfully explores the dark side of gifted intelligence and the terrifying fragility of family bonds, keeping viewers on edge as Joshua's unsettling games threaten to destroy everything his parents hold dear.
