'Hell is empty, The Devils are here:' The Exorcist: Believer launching this Halloween

Horror fans rejoice! The iconic franchise, The Exorcist, is set for an ominous revival this Halloween. David Gordon Green, the man behind the successful modern Halloween franchise, unveils plans for not just one, but a terrifying new trilogy with the release of 'The Exorcist: Believer.' 

As they say, "The devil is in the details." The first glimpse of the impending horror is out with the release of three chilling official posters. The anticipation is further fuelled by the word about an official trailer releasing very soon. 

A Classic Franchise Reborn

While we've been satiating our thirst for horror with backseat thrillers, David Gordon Green brings back the pure, unadulterated horror that The Exorcist franchise carries. Collaborating with Universal, Blumhouse, and Morgan Creek, Gordon Green directs the first of the new trilogy, set to premiere in theatres on October 13, 2023.

Jason Blum Takes Horror to New Heights

Jason Blum, the illustrious producer behind Blumhouse Productions, known for its successful horror portfolio including Paranormal Activity, Insidious, and Get Out, is leaving no stone unturned to ensure 'The Exorcist: Believer' fits right into his league. The project doesn't just promise regeneration, but also continuity. It maintains the same eerie 'world' that the 1970s classic had, with a similar plot involving a desperate father seeking help for his possessed child.

The series also ropes in Peter Sattler and Scott Teems, along with a star-studded cast including Leslie Odom Jr. of 'Hamilton' fame, 'Hereditary' actress Ann Dowd, 'Gaslit' actor Raphael Sbarge, Lidya Jewett of Netflix's Nightbooks, and more.

Reinforcing the spirit of the franchise, 'the writers have accomplished the task of maintaining thematic continuity while spreading the chilling narrative across the trilogy'. The Exorcist hadn't graced the big screen since the 2005 release of 'Dominion: Prequel to The Exorcist.' Now, since the resurging interest in horror genre greatly fuelled by the short-lived Fox series 'The Exorcist,' this upcoming Halloween promises to be an entirely spectral experience.

The fear factor thus returns into our hearts with Gordon Green reigniting the horror spark with The Exorcist: Believer. So, mark your calendars. This Halloween, don't forget to confront your demons!
