The Exorcist franchise.The Doctor Sleep director, who is best known for his Netflix original dramas such as The Haunting of Hill House and The Haunting of Bly Manor, will helm what is being described as a “radical new take” on The Exorcist for Blumhouse and Morgan Creek.“The Exorcist is one of the reasons I became a filmmaker, and it is an honour to have the chance to try something fresh, bold, and terrifying within its universe,” Flanagan stated (via Variety). “Reuniting with my friends at Blumhouse, with whom I’ve made some of my favorite pieces of work, only makes this more exciting.”Notably, Flanagan’s upcoming film will be an all-new story and not a sequel to 2023’s The Exorcist: Believer, which was directed by David Gordon Green.
Green had planned to make a trilogy of his own, with the sequel The Exorcist: Deceiver originally scheduled for a 2025 release, but he left the franchise after Believer underperformed with critics.The new Exorcist movie marks the fourth collaboration for Flanagan and Blumhouse; he previously wrote and directed 2013’s Oculus, 2016’s Hush and 2016’s Ouija: Origin of Evil.So excited we can finally confirm this!
