New Line has set a date for the final installment in their $800 million grossing horror franchise The Conjuring, bringing the story of Ed and Lorrain Warren to an end on Sept 5, 2025.
The studio are billing the film as the finale to the story started with 2013’s The Conjuring, which starred Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga as supernatural investigators, and went onto gross $320 million at the worldwide box-office, all off a budget of just $20 million. Its success spawned the $2 billion grossing Conjuring Universe, which included sequels The Conjuring 2 ($310 million) and the pandemic-affected The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It ($200 million).
While there are no details at this stage with regards to what case Ed and Lorrain Warren will be investigating, we do know that franchise mainstay Michael Chaves (The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, The Nun II) will be back behind the camera, directing from a script written by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick (The Conjuring 2).
Producer James Wan, who directed the first two Conjuring films, said last year that “we are working on [The Conjuring 4] right now. With The Conjuring films, we are very precious about [them]. And so we kind of want to just take our time to make sure we get it right and to make sure the emotion of the Warren stories that we want to tell, and moving into, and potentially wrapping up, we just want to make sure that it’s the right thing, the right story that we’re telling.
