The first photos from director Kimberly Peirce's adaptation of Stephen King's Carrie show Chloe Grace Moretz in the iconic bloody prom dress and Julianne Moore full of barely-contained fire-and-brimstone fury.

Entertainment Weeklyhas the the first two images of the redo from Boys Don't Cry helmer Peirce, which will be released March 13. Her version of King's classic novel, previously filmed in 1976 with Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie, will be "modernized" and "more character-focused."

Moore discusses the complexities of her character Margaret White, the fanatically religious mother of teenage misfit Carrie White.

"This woman has clearly had a psychotic break, perhaps several," Moore tells EW. "But what's sad about it for me is that she's clearly sick and here's this poor child in the thrall of this person who is seriously ill. And on top of that, they have this mother-daughter relationship. So we want to make that relationship as meaningful as possible, even though it is horrible and destructive."
