‘The Void’ Probably Isn’t Getting a Sequel But the Directors Do Have “All Sorts of Ideas”
One of the favorite movies of hardcore horror fans back in 2016 was Steven Kostanski and Jeremy Gillespie‘s The Void, which was essentially Hellraiser meets The Thing. Loaded with insane practical effects, it was a big hit with gore-hounds in particular, many of whom have been begging the duo for a sequel. And they do want to make one, though it may never happen.
Speaking with ComicBook.com, Kostanski talked the potential for The Void 2.
“Well, Jer and I have all sorts of ideas on what we could do with The Void, but it’s totally tethered to the producers and what they want to do. So, I feel like, at this time, the movie’s going to just enjoy its life as a one-off thing,” he told the site. “I mean, anything is possible in the future, but I think, for now, we’re just going to leave it at that. As the one film.”
In The Void…
Shortly after delivering a patient to an understaffed hospital, a police officer experiences strange and violent occurrences seemingly linked to a group of mysterious hooded figures.
Kostanski’s Leprechaun Returns is now available for digital rental.
Paramount is heading to Sleepy Hollow with a brand new feature film take on the classic Headless Horseman tale, with Lindsey Anderson Beer (Pet Sematary: Bloodlines) announced to direct the movie back in 2022. But is that project still happening, now two years later?
The Hollywood Reporter lets us know this afternoon that Paramount Pictures has renewed its first-look deal with Lindsey Anderson Beer, and one of the projects on the upcoming slate is the aforementioned Sleepy Hollow movie that was originally announced two years ago.
THR details, “Additional projects on the development slate include… Sleepy Hollow with Anderson Beer attached to write, direct, and produce alongside Todd Garner of Broken Road.”
You can learn more about the slate over on The Hollywood Reporter. It also includes a supernatural thriller titled Here Comes the Dark from the writers of Don’t Worry Darling.
The origin of all things Sleepy Hollow is of course Washington Irving’s story “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” which was first published in 1819. Tim Burton adapted the tale for the big screen in 1999, that film starring Johnny Depp as main character Ichabod Crane.
More recently, the FOX series “Sleepy Hollow” was also based on Washington Irving’s tale of Crane and the Headless Horseman. The series lasted four seasons, cancelled in 2017.
