Jason Blum says he is working “overtime” to make Happy Death Day 3 happen

June 9, 2020 by EJ Moreno

Many know it’s not easy to launch a new franchise these days, especially a PG-13 horror series. But producer Jason Blum and director Christoper Landon have done just that with their Happy Death Day movies.

With the second installment doing okay, many wanted to see another entry, but Blum hasn’t always been so sure. Back in March of last year, Blum lowered fan expectations for a third film by saying it seemed “not very likely but not impossible.” But now it looks like the tone has changed and we might see a new movie sooner than we thought.

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Jason Blum opened up about wanting to return to the world of Happy Death Day. The man behind Blumhouse Productions gave fans of the slasher movies a reason to stay optimistic, stating: “Let me tell you; I’m working overtime on it. Believe me.”

Happy Death Day 2U ended with a post-credits scene that could lead to a possible sci-fi future for the franchise. However, despite his interest, Blum also cautioned there is nothing official in the works as yet.
