The Exorcist: Believer Director Addresses Plans for Scrapped Sequels
David Gordon Green’s series of Halloween movies received a mix of positive and negative responses from viewers, leaving some cautiously hopeful about his future The Exorcist trilogy. However, the underwhelming critical and commercial reception of The Exorcist: Believer led to the cancellation of his plans for two additional films. Green has since shared some aspects he intended to delve into with these dropped storylines, calling them “ambitious” and “complex.” He also mentioned that the pressure was different when working on The Exorcist compared to his work on the Halloween movies. Now, Mike Flanagan is taking over as director for the upcoming Exorcist, slated for release on March 13, 2026
