Awesome ‘Final Destination 6’ Concept Trailer — Hey, New Line, We Like This!
If you’re going to make a sequel, at least try something new – try and further the genre. I liked the conceit of a found-footage Final Destination, even though that never came into fruition. The 3-D in FD5 was extraordinary, and really took audience inside Death’s game of cat and mouse. So, what now? New Line Cinema clearly forgot they have huge horror franchises, and even gave away the rights to Jason Voorhees so Paramount Pictures could make their own Friday the 13th movie. While they’re in the business to make money, you can also garner rewards by keeping your fans happy. The fans, well, we want more Elm Streets, a new Freddy vs. Jason, and even would enjoy a new Final Destination.
Apparently, Final Destination producer Craig Perry is still pushing New Line to get a sixth film off the ground – and one of his concept trailers has been shared online by its creator.
Alexander McNeill shared his concept trailer for Final Destination 6: The Dark Age, which takes the fun concept of cheating death back to the 12th century! “Here’s something fun. Final Destination producer Craig Perry and I discussed a possible direction the franchise could take,It inspired this edit of a concept trailer for a sixth Final Destination movie. The trailer is a mix of over 20 different films and TV shows. The idea is to draft behind ‘Game of Thrones’ and set it in the 12th century.
Here’s a look at what a next Final Destination might look like…”
Thoughts? This opens the door to so many possibilities like taking death to space (Gravity should get people thinking).

‘Ready or Not’: Radio Silence Filmmakers Tease the “Absolute Banger” of a Sequel That’s Taking Shape
It was first reported a couple weeks ago that Ready or Not 2 is now in development, with Adam Robitel (The Taking of Deborah Logan, Insidious: The Last Key, Escape Room, Escape Room: Tournament of Champions) in talks to direct the sequel to the 2019 box office hit. Additionally, we had learned that Samara Weaving would be returning to star.
Entertainment Weekly caught up with Ready or Not directors Tyler Gillett and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin in the wake of those reports, and we’ve now got an update straight from the source.
“It’s getting figured out. That’s what we’ll say: Ready or Not 2 is getting figured out,” Gillett tells EW, confirming last month’s report. “What we can say is that there is a script that is an absolute fucking banger of a sequel. And however it gets made, and in whatever capacity we are helping get it made, we are so excited that it’s happening.”
“I don’t think we knew after making [Ready or Not] that there would be so much story left to tell,” Gillett continues. “We’re so proud of what that first movie is, we’re so proud of what the sequel is. We’re just really excited, and fingers crossed that it gets made.” Bettinelli-Olpin adds, “And with Searchlight and Samara, they’re not gonna let it down.”
The first film introduced a mythology wherein the wealthy Le Domas family has made a deal with the devil, one that requires them to take part in bizarre – and deadly – wedding night traditions. There’s much that can be done with the premise going forward, even if the first movie ended with Weaving’s Grace massacring the family and burning down their estate.
Wikipedia reminds, “The sole survivor of the night, Grace walks out of the burning manor just as the police arrive. Upon asking her what happened, she simply replies: in-laws.”
