Jason Blum is gearing up for a jam-packed 2021 with the final Purge film and a new Halloween entry awaiting release. With the first trailer for Halloween Kills dropping this week, it seems like it will be quite the thrilling entry, and mega-producer Jason Blum appears to feel the same.
In an interview with Discussing Film, Blum teased Halloween Kills and said the promo material for the new film is about to begin in a big way. With an original release date of last October, fans of Halloween have waited for way too long. and Blum teased that the wait isn’t the only reason to be pumped.
“I don’t think the long wait is why it’s worth it,” says Blum. “It’s worth it because the movie is spectacular, and people will be as angry as they are that they haven’t gotten to see it yet. When they see it, they’ll be calm because the movie is great. David Gordon Green did an amazing job.”

As Laurie fights her pain and prepares to defend herself against him, she inspires all of Haddonfield to rise up against their unstoppable monster.
