‘The Devil Inside’ Sequel Talk “A Little Premature”
Opening to an astounding $34 million this weekend, a sequel to Paramount Pictures’ The Devil Inside is obvious, yet it’s a bit too soon to announce anything says Steven Schneider, one of the movie’s executive producers.
“It’s a little premature,” Schneider told TheWrap Sunday. “Everybody is processing what happened — the remarkable weekend we had — and feeling really good about that.”
But Schneider, who produced Paranormal Activity 3 and Insidious, and who executive produced Paranormal 1 and 2, allowed that he has thought about more Devil Inside.
“Certainly the filmmakers and Lorenzo (di Bonaventura) and I would all love to explore that with the studio and I think we believe that there is absolutely the potential to carry forward our storylines from the original. It would be a rather organic and fun process — and one that would lead to great results.”
What would you like to see in a sequel? It’s only a matter of time before it’s official…
