WWE Studios has released a trailer for Leprechaun: Origins, its reboot of the Leprechaun franchise first launched in 1993 with a then unknown Jennifer Aniston in the lead role, and creatively peaking with Leprechaun In the Hood, starring Ice T.

Leprechaun: Origins is directed by Zach Lipovsky (Tasmanian Devils) and stars Stephanie Bennett (Grave Encounters 2), Melissa Roxburgh (Diary of a Wimpy Kid), Andrew Dunbar (Battlestar Galactica: Razor), Brendan Fletcher (Freddy vs. Jason), and WWE star Dylan “Hornswoggle” Postl as the Leprechaun.

Lionsgate will release Leprechaun: Origins on VOD Aug. 26 and on DVD and Blu-ray Sept. 30. Unlike the inspired Leprechaun In the Hood and Leprechaun In Space, the new flick appears to be more sinister… we love that, and hope it accomplishes what Curse of Chucky did.

Peep it:
