Bruce Campbell Says Another Movie is Possible if “Ash vs. Evil Dead” Gets Cancelled
After years of teasing Evil Dead 4, a film that pretty much every horror fan had been begging for, Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell ended up taking Ash to the small screen instead for Starz’s “Ash vs. Evil Dead,“ which just kicked off its third season this past Sunday night. The season’s performance will determine if its renewed for a fourth.
Of course, we’re hoping that “Ash vs. Evil Dead” continues for many years to come, but what happens if Starz cancels it? Is that the end of the original franchise altogether?
Speaking with EW, Bruce Campbell says another movie is still on the table.
“We won’t know [if we’ve been renewed] till the middle of March. We’re in the horrible television limbo right now,” Campbell told the site. “If they take us off the air, we can think about another movie. And if they don’t, we can just keep plugging away.”
How about an Ash/Mia, original/remake mash-up film?!
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
