It follows three Seattle high school seniors—bullied Andrew (Dane DeHaan), his cousin Matt (Alex Russell), and the popular Steve (Michael B. Jordan)—who form a bond after gaining telekinetic powers from an unknown object and using them for fun, until Andrew begins going down a darker path.

Chronicle premiered at the Gérardmer Film Festival on January 28, 2012, and was released in the United States on February 3, by 20th Century Fox. The film grossed $127 million against a budget of $15 million. It received generally positive reviews, and received a nomination for Best Science Fiction Film at the 39th Saturn Awards.
