- Posted On:October 10, 2023
Universal and Blumhouse’s sequel ‘The Exorcist: Believer’ doubles the exorcisms of the original and follows the 3-day disappearance of two young girls, who return under a demonic influence. To battle the evil spirts lurking within them, they recruit the one person with prior exorcism experience: Chris MacNeil, played by original “Exorcist” star Ellen Burstyn. The new cast includes Leslie Odom Jr., Ann Dowd, Jennifer Nettles, Norbert Leo Butz and newcomers Lidya Jewett and Olivia Marcum as the pair of possessed preteens.
‘The Exorcist: Believer’ is meant to be the first in a new trilogy of films helmed by David Gordon Green, who just revived the “Halloween” franchise with a three-movie return by Jamie Lee Curtis. A sequel, titled “The Exorcist: Deceiver,” already has a release date set for April the 18th, 2025. The “Exorcist” rights alone cost Universal $400 million to acquire.
