It's Official!
We just told you about the plot details of the upcoming film Halloween Returns, but now we have even better news! According to an official press release on behalf of Dimension Films, Halloween Returns is set to begin production NEXT MONTH. That’s right, Mike’s return to the big screen might now be as far off as we had thought. That time table could easily put us at a Fall 2016 release.
Here’s the official rundown :
“Michael Myers has taken a long break from the big screen and we know fans are eager to see him return. We are excited to be back in business with Trancas and look forward to bringing one of the scariest installments of this classic franchise to audiences worldwide,” said Bob Weinstein, co-chairman The Weinstein Company & Dimension Films.
“The legacy of Halloween is something that Trancas is very proud of, and I look forward to working together again with Bob and Dimension to continue that tradition,” said Akkad.
Dunstan and Melton are repped by Paradigm, Underground’s Trevor Engelson and attorney Dave Feldman. Overseeing production for Dimension Films are EVP of Production and Creative Affairs, Matthew Signer, SVP of Production and Development and Keith Levine.
