John Carpenter has taken to social media this afternoon to make the unlucky (but envisioned) announcement that Halloween Kills is no for a longer time releasing this Halloween period.
As a substitute, the sequel to 2018’s Halloween will now launch on October 15, 2021.
An official assertion penned by John Carpenter and director David Gordon Eco-friendly reads, “If we launch it in Oct of this yr as planned, we have to face the reality that the movie would be consumed in a compromised theatrical experience. Immediately after weighing our solutions, we have picked out to thrust the film’s theatrical launch by a person calendar year.”
Browse the comprehensive statement and verify out a brief teaser for Halloween Kills underneath. The movie is established to pick up right right after Halloween 2018, and the clip picks up wherever we left off…
In a ideal environment, the plan was for Halloween Kills to release in 2020 and for trilogy-ender Halloween Finishes to release a person yr afterwards, in 2021. Alas, this world is considerably from a perfect one.
Halloween Ends will now launch on Oct 14, 2022.
