Blumhouse’s New Movie ‘The Craft: Legacy’ is a Sequel to the 1996 Original Film! [Trailer]
Surprise! We’ve learned today that Blumhouse’s upcoming new take on The Craft isn’t a remake but rather a sequel, and it’s been given the official title The Craft: Legacy!
In this year’s continuation of the cult hit from the ’90s, an eclectic foursome of aspiring teenage witches get more than they bargained for as they lean into their newfound powers.
We’ve also been provided with the trailer and poster art today, along with confirmation that The Craft: Legacy is coming straight to at-home VOD rather than theaters.
You’ll find it on-demand everywhere on October 28. Check out the trailer below, which introduces the new weirdos and confirms that this is indeed a sequel to the 1996 film!
The Craft: Legacy will be available widely on PVOD this Halloween with leading digital retailers for a 48-hour rental period at a suggested retail price of $19.99, and for premium digital purchase at a suggested retail price of $24.99. An international theatrical release is anticipated in several territories, with details to be solidified in the weeks ahead.
Written and directed by Zoe Lister-Jones, the film stars Cailee Spaeny, Gideon Adlon, Lovie Simone, Zoey Luna, Nicholas Galitzine, with Michelle Monaghan and David Duchovny.
Blumhouse and Red Wagon Entertainment are producing the film for Columbia Pictures.
Producers include Douglas Wick, Lucy Fisher and Jason Blum.
Andrew Fleming, Lucas Wiesendanger, Daniel Bekerman, Beatriz Sequeira, Jeanette Volturno, Couper Samuelson, Zoe Lister-Jones and Natalia Anderson executive produced.
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.
