The new film will not be a sequel to The Exorcist: Believer.

A new take on The Exorcist franchise is officially on the way. On Wednesday, it was confirmed that Mike Flanagan will be writing, directing, and producing a new Exorcist movie. Flanagan's new film is being described as"an all-new story set in The Exorcist universe and is not a sequel to 2023's The Exorcist: Believer." The film will be produced by Flanagan, Trevor Macy, and John Scherer.

"Mike's voice and vision are indispensable for horror fans and we are excited to welcome him back to Blumhouse," Jason Blum echoed."I immediately responded to Mike's new take on the world of The Exorcist and can't wait for audiences to experience it." Why Isn't The Exorcist: Believer Getting a Sequel?The rights to The Exorcist franchise were acquired by Universal and Blumhouse in 2021 in a $400 million distribution deal, which originally encompassed a new trilogy of films. At the time, there was an option for the second and third installments potentially being exclusive to Universal's Peacock streaming service.
