Final Destination 6 Gets Release Date (And It’s Sooner Than We Thought)

As a die-hard fan of the “Final Destination” series who has lived through multiple reboots and sequels, I am beyond excited for the release of “Final Destination: Bloodlines”. With a fresh team behind it, including directors Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein, who showed their dedication to the franchise by staging a cinematic accident during a Zoom meeting with studio execs, I have high hopes that this film will be a thrilling addition to the series. The fact that Tony Todd is returning as William Bludworth is also a major selling point for me.

The sixth installment of the “Final Destination” series, titled “Final Destination: Bloodlines,” is set to hit theaters on May 16, 2025. Currently, it’s the only major studio film scheduled for that weekend, as reported by Variety. Despite the approaching release date, details about the story that “Bloodlines” intends to convey remain scarce.

The film “Final Destination: Bloodlines” has faced numerous challenges since its production began in 2019. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Hollywood labor strikes in 2023, and restructuring within the studios’ corporations, filming was only completed this May. Initially, it had no release date, but unexpectedly, it has been scheduled to premiere, replacing J.J. Abrams’ mystery “Flowervale Street”. Consequently, “Flowervale Street” has been rescheduled for March 2026 instead.

The movie titled “Final Destination: Bloodlines” was penned by Jon Watts, Guy Busick and Lori Evans Taylor, while Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein handled its direction. All five individuals are newcomers to the series. As of now, Tony Todd is the only confirmed cast member from the past, reprising his character as William Bludworth. Given the fresh faces and the considerable time elapsed since “Final Destination 5” in 2011, some have referred to “Bloodlines” as a reboot; however, producers have opted for the term “re-imagining.

1) The actors Brec Bassinge, Teo Brione, Kaitlyn Santa Juan, Richard Harmo, Anna Lor, Owen Patrick Joyne, Max Lloyd-Jone, Rya Kihlsted, and Tinpo Lee are part of the cast, but their roles have not been disclosed yet. In an interview with Digital Spy in 2020, producer Craig Perry hinted that the film would be set within the realm of emergency responders such as EMTs, firefighters, and police officers. However, it’s uncertain if this initial premise has remained after multiple revisions. Furthermore, a production insider revealed to Bloody Disgusting that the movie will delve further into William Bludworth’s past, exploring his relationship with death, and potentially featuring flashbacks to his childhood.

To date, the most significant news about Bloodlines has been incredibly promising, suggesting that the franchise is under capable management. As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Lipovsky and Stein managed to secure the director roles through an impressive stunt during a Zoom meeting with studio executives. They orchestrated a scene reminiscent of the dramatic accidents often depicted in these films, employing pre-recorded special effects to convincingly stage their own on-camera demise. This demonstration of unwavering enthusiasm for the series ultimately clinched them the position.

The outcomes are going to show up on the large screen before long. The film Final Destination: Bloodlines will be hitting theaters on May 16, 2025. If you’d like to see earlier versions, they can be rented or bought from PVOD stores. However, only the fourth movie – The Final Destination – is streamable via subscription on Max.
