Diane Lane (FEUD: Capote vs. The Swans, Unfaithful) has been cast in Mike Flanagan’s The Exorcist, produced by Blumhouse-Atomic Monster and Morgan Creek Entertainment for Universal Pictures. She joins Scarlett Johansson and Jacobi Jupe, who were previously announced.
The film will tell an all-new story set in The Exorcist universe and is not a sequel to 2023’s The Exorcist: Believer.
The film is set to be released theatrically on Friday, March 12, 2027, and is set to shoot in New York City.
It is produced by Blumhouse-Atomic Monster, Morgan Creek Entertainment and Flanagan, who will also write and direct via his Red Room Pictures banner. Alexandra Magistro will also executive produce for Red Room Pictures. David Robinson produces for Morgan Creek Entertainment. Jason Blum and Ryan Turek serve as producer and executive producer, respectively, for Blumhouse-Atomic Monster.
From revolutionary writer-director Mike Flanagan-revered creator of the acclaimed series The Fall of the House of Usher, Midnight Mass and The Haunting of Hill House and the groundbreaking films The Life of Chuck (TIFF Audience Award Winner), Oculus, Doctor Sleep and Gerald’s Game-comes a radical new vision of the most terrifying title in the history of cinematic horror.
