Director David Gordon Green was in production on his first film The exorcist trilogy, staged at Jason Blum’s Blumhouse, and is entitled The exorcist: believer.
There is a lot of excitement around this movie and I actually had the opportunity to watch the creepy trailer of the movie but it hasn’t been released yet.
In anticipation of the film, Blumhouse shared a behind-the-scenes photo in which the director kneels down and looks at a strange symbol that is decidedly satanic in nature.
A video was also shared in which Green shared his enthusiasm for the project, saying: “The countdown begins. We have 134 days left until the release of our film The Exorcist: Believer. Right now, our team is giving the putting the finishing touches on things; we’re excited to bring it to the big screen. It’s happening very soon. Keep an eye out here for more updates.”
The upcoming film features a cast that includes Elena Burstyn AND Linda Blairwho will be featured in the film together Leslie Odom Jr., Lydia Jewett, Jennifer Nettles, Ann Dowd, Raffaello Sbarge, Okwui OkpokwasiliAND Olivia Mark.
This reboot is described as a legacy sequel that will take place after the events of the original 1973 film. It will also be a trilogy, and this first film focuses on two young girls who get possessed at the same time. Director Green previously teased what we can expect from it, saying:
“I think we’ll learn from the production of the first one to see what applies as we evolve. She’s honoring Chris MacNeil and we’re looking into her 50 years later, so it’s a significant evolution in her character, but I think it’s going to be really fun to explore.
“We’re about to go on a very different kind of technical journey than Halloween. I don’t even necessarily classify it as a horror film, even though it’s very appealing to the horror, it’s psychological and dramatic. It doesn’t have the funny tension-breaker that Halloween would have, because you can’t lean into any of the more campy qualities that I think we enjoy from time to time in Halloween movies. It’s very earnest and quite direct, and I don’t know, I’m excited about it.”
The first film will be released in theaters on October 13, 2023.
