For three years, Ali Larter has been good and bad as Niki/Jessica Sanders and then Tracy Strauss on Heroes. But this weekend in theaters, she becomes Obsessed, which is also the name of her new movie.
The plot follows Derek (Idris Elba), a successful businessman who seems to have it all: Sharon, his beautiful wife (Beyonce Knowles), and their newborn son. He meets the alluring temp worker Lisa (Larter), who quickly falls in love with him and thinks that Derek feels the same way.
One night during a work Christmas party, something happen between them in the bathroom --but you're going to have to see the movie to find out for yourself. So, what does Derek do? He goes home and doesn't tell his wife about the incident yet little did he know that their troubles were far from over, as Lisa began stalking him, emailing him pictures, and will stop nothing to get what she wants ... but what she didn't count on is the wife, who decides to fight back.
Obsessed is an urban, corporate FatalAttraction -- with a twist, thanks to executive producer Beyonce. Over the years, the wife has always been protected by her husband, the hero, against the mentally unstable temptress. Yet, in Obsessed, the wife becomes the hero for the first time instead of the victim, for the highlight of Obsessed is definitely the climatic showdown between Sharon and Lisa; I predict an nomination for "Best Fight" at the 2010 MTV Movie Awards.
Here's a behind the scenes look with interviews from the cast from it's official YouTube user -- plus a message from Ali Larter in the end:
So, get Obsessed in theatres this weekend.
