Overview
- Johansson is confirmed to star in a new Exorcist movie written, directed and produced by Mike Flanagan.
- The film is an all‑new story set in the original Exorcist universe and is not a sequel to 2023’s Believer.
- Blumhouse‑Atomic Monster, Morgan Creek and Flanagan’s Red Room Pictures are producing, with Jason Blum, David Robinson, Alexandra Magistro and Ryan Turek attached.
- Production has not begun, no release date or additional cast have been announced, and filming is expected to take place in New York City.
- Flanagan has described a radical approach that honors the original without leaning on nostalgia, as Universal presses forward after investing roughly $400 million in the property.
