We already knew that Universal and Blumhouse were planning one more new visit to the Halloween franchise following the success of the 2018 movie that re-tooled the chronology and followed on from John Carpenter's 1978 original. Now the man himself has hit Twitter to announce that there will in fact be two new entries, Halloween Kills due in 2020 and Halloween Ends, to bow in 2021.
Both of the new films will reunite director David Gordon Green with co-writers Danny McBride and Scott Teems, and, naturally, Jamie Lee Curtis is back as Laurie Strode.
Given that the 2018 entry made more than $22.5 million on a typically thrifty Blumhouse budget of $10 million, it was inevitable that the saga would continue, as Michael Myers rarely lets a little thing like his apparent death get in the way of stalky/slashy mayhem. Carpenter, who co-wrote and directed the horror that started it all, is also back as executive producer for the new ones. As for Halloween Ends? We doubt it!
What this means for Green and his work on a still-untitled Cambridge Analytica film for the AGBO company remains to be seen at this point, but it sounds like he'll be making the new _Halloween_s back to back.
