The HALLOWEEN Reboot Has Started Production and The Full Cast Has Been Announced
Director David Gordon Green and writer Danny McBride have officially started shooting their Halloween reboot. Above you'll see a cool graphic being used for the production. Judging from what has been said about this movie since it was first announced, it sounds like we actually might get a great sequel to John Carpenter's original 1978 film.
The movie is said to be a sequel to the very first Halloween movie. It will ignore every sequel that has been made and after 40 years, Michael Meyers will return to finish what he started.
Jamie Lee Curtis returns to reprise her iconic role as Laurie Strode, who is said to come to her final confrontation with Michael Myers, the masked figure who has haunted her since she narrowly escaped his killing spree on Halloween night four decades ago. Judy Greer plays Karen Strode, the daughter of Curtis’ character, and Andi Matichak (Orange Is the New Black, Underground) plays Allyson, the granddaughter of Laurie Strode.
Thanks to Bloody-Disgusting we now have a list of other actors that have joined the project. Those actors include Virginia “Ginny” Gardner (Project Almanac, Marvel’s Runaways), Miles Robbins (Mozart in the Jungle, My Friend Dahmer), Dylan Arnold (Mudbound, Laggies, When We Rise), and Drew Scheid (Stranger Things). It was also previously announced that the original who played Michael Meyers, Nick Castle, will return to the role.
Academy Award-winning make-up and VFX artist, Christopher Nelson (Suicide Squad, Deadpool, Sin City, Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2) has also joined the production to help bring the bloody mess that Michael Myers leaves behind to the big screen.
Then, of course, there's John Carpenter, who will score, executive produce and serve as a consultant on the film.
Halloween will be released by Universal Pictures on Friday, October 19, 2018.
