Despite its definitive title, THE LAST EXORCISM's story will continue.
Deadline reported over the weekend that production will get underway on the as-yet untitled follow-up next month in New Orelans, with Eli Roth, Arcade Pictures and Strike Entertainment returning to produce, and Ashley Bell returning to star. Ed Gass-Donnelly (SMALL TOWN MURDER SONGS) will direct the film, which apparently picks up three months after the divisive ending of the first film.
The site and producers make a point of saying the sequel will be R-rated (in contrast to the first's PG-13. Roth addressed this saying he's “very, very excited to continue to this story. Obviously with the title of the first one we had not planned on a sequel, but we love the story and subject matter and had what we feel is an inspired idea to continue it. As you can see from other recent films, fans around the world are fascinated by this subject matter, and we want to go deeper and darker this time. The first film worked great as a PG-13 psychological film, but now we want to go R-rated and show the true horror of what this subject matter offers. The biggest creative challenge will be coming up with the right title!”
