‘The Exorcist’ reboot will actually be a direct sequel to the original film

He should watch The Heretic and copy it directly, I'm sure it will be fine.

Please don't "LOL" your own post. It's bad form.

They shouldn’t even make this.

Will Regan be living in Tysons Corner or Gaithersburg?

They must get Linda Blair! Otherwise there’s no point.

In keeping with the D.C. theme, grown-up Regan will be played by Kellyanne Conway.

David Gordon Green is gonna fuck this like he did Halloween.

And the reason Halloween 2018 and all other Blumhouse projects are mediocre is because Blumhouse is spread too thin.

This is what happens when somebody has a monopoly on horror. No TLC and lame shows.

Demi Lovato will be Regan while Alok will be Pazuzu.

I went to a screening where William Friedkin spoke and took questions from the audience. One young woman asked if the part where tubular bells starts to play and the nun's habits are blown by the wind is meant to symbolize when evil enters the film. I always thought this was true and thought the nun's thing was so brilliant.

Much to my shock Friedkin said no one ever asked him that before and he hadn't thought about that before. (Maybe it was the editor's idea?)

Is that a penis in his chest?

This won’t be good

Will Stephen Miller play the Beast?

Not a fan of his remakes but movies like Happy Death Day, Unfriended and Freaky were fun.

Not surprised.

Let’s have it now!

This is gonna flop

The television show was actually really scary. But it went on...

Season 1 of the show was great. 2 however…

Except Pazuzu find her so vile & horrifying (and smelly), the thought of entering her makes him sick, so instead he hangs out at the food court of the Crystal City mall, chatting up homeless people trying to escape the DC heat

What in the world is that monster? It looks like baby Godzilla wearing fairy wings. Oh, and a huge pinga!

Will mannish Jamie Lee Curtis be attached? She can play a church official - like a Monsignor- with doubts, or something.

Is the demon going to just lay in bed the whole film again? What a lazy fuck.

Ellen Burstyn is returning (if she lives that long!) Hurry up and get this made!

^^^ Is she playing the demon?

Burstyn will return in the wizened Max Von Sydow role.

She will probably play her original role, as this is a direct sequel to the original, and come in to lend some knowledge and wisdom to whoever is dealing with the possession.

The new one is starring Leslie Odom Jr who is playing “the father of a possessed child” who “tracks down” Burstyn’s character, Chris MacNeil, for help.

It’s expected to be released December 2023.

Didn't Pazuzu murder Chris in the TV series?

R29 READ. This is a direct sequel to the original, meaning, like 2018’s Halloween, everything besides the original is being retconned.

What about Linda Blair?

I kind of understand why they wouldn’t bring Linda Blair into this, but it’s a little sad at the same time. It seems a bit awkward bringing Burstyn back as the connection to the original without also bringing Blair.

I don’t understand why they would keep Blair away r32. She should be a part of this too.

Granted, they’re planning a trilogy, so if this does well they may have her in a sequel? Possibly?

What about me? I was the ultimate method actor on that set, even though I wasn’t on camera! I deserved an Oscar!

Why would Linda not be in this series? Last I saw her, she didn't look horrible.

Oh well, Geena can step in again.

They probably won’t have the daughter at all.

The article says the movie sequels are NOT wiped from continuity.

The sequels will not be acknowledged at all but you can still consider them canon if you choose.

Linda looks great!

And she's an animal lover and supports animal rescue!

I think Linda looks great, too, and would love to see her in this, but I’m not sure she’s taken as a serious actor these days. She’s made some questionable b-movies in trying to pay the rent. And she’s not that great an actor, tbh. I guess it depends on how elevated the producers want this to appear. You’ve got to know all this is going through the minds of the producers.

[quote]R27 She will probably play her original role, as this is a direct sequel to the original

“Direct Sequel”? She was 40 in the original.

Is the experience supposed to have taken THAT much of a toll on her looks?

"Yo, Pazuzu! What are your PRONOUNS?"

R42, it's Cardi B as Regan possessed by Pazzuzu. Instead of Mercedes Cambridge voicing the demon, Cardi B will just rap.

“We are not German! We are Swiss!”

Probably where Trump got the idea to feny he was German to his Jewish tenants but he’s so stupid he got the Swiss the & Swedish mixed up
