JEEPERS CREEPERS 3 Is Going Back into Production and We Have Story Details
I'm a big fan of the Jeepers Creepers horror franchise. The first two films were great, and a third has been in development for years. It was supposed to go into production last year, but it ended up being shut down for unknown reasons.
Bloody-Disgusting is now reporting that Jeepers Creepers 3 is in pre-production and is now set to shoot in Louisiana instead of Vancouver, Canada, which is where it was originally supposed to shoot. The site also confirms that Victor Salva is still set to direct the film, which is scheduled to begin filming next month. Here are some story details that were released:
Jeepers Creepers 3 will show events on the last day of the Creeper’s twenty-three day feeding frenzy, as the skeptical Sergent Tubbs teams up with a task force hellbent on destroying the Creeper for good. The Creeper fights back in gory glory as its enemies grow closer than ever before to learning the secret of its dark origins.
It's also said that the Creeper’s van, with the “BEATNGU” license plate, is going to play a major role in the story, which is cool. I always loved that rusty old tricked-out truck!
Jonathan Breck is set to reprise his role as The Creeper in the film and Brandon Smith will be playing Sergeant Davis Tubbs. Francis Ford Coppola is also attached as a producer on the film. As a fan of the franchise, I can't wait to see how this third installment in the series turns out!
