‘The Void’ Probably Isn’t Getting a Sequel But the Directors Do Have “All Sorts of Ideas”

Published

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.

Writer in the horror community since 2008. Editor in Chief of Bloody Disgusting. Owns Eli Roth's prop corpse from Piranha 3D. Has four awesome cats. Still plays with toys.
