On the subject of his reboot of The Exorcist, David Gordon Green ha dichiarato a Variety: "Iniziamo tra un paio di settimane. Siamo pronti a rimboccarci le maniche e a tuffarci nel prossimo grande franchise. Abbiamo un cast straordinario che si riunisce e sceneggiature di cui siamo tutti entusiasti".
According to Universal's unveiling, the new trilogy of the L'Esorcista dovrebbe debuttare con il suo primo capitolo il 13 ottobre 2023, con l'attrice novantenne Ellen Burstyn che ritrova il suo ruolo di allora (Chris MacNeil, la madre di Regan) nel nuovo progetto di cui alcune delle scene sono già state girate lo last June.
Basato sull'omonimo romanzo di William Peter Blatty, The Exorcist (1973) by William Friedkin was well received by critics gaining much popularity and becoming, in time, a landmark of modern cinema.
De The Exorcist two sequels (The Exorcist II - The Heretic, The Exorcist III), two prequels/spinoffs (The Exorcist - Genesis, Dominion: Prequel to the Exorcist) and a TV series (The Exorcist) that ran for two seasons were made.
The story features Regan (Linda Blair), a 12-year-old girl who begins to show signs of imbalance after playing with a ouija board and unintentionally summoning the demon Pazuzu. Initially her mother will subject her to several medical, including psychiatric, examinations but without noticing any improvement in her daughter. Some disturbing and abnormal behaviors of Regan will then lead the woman to turn to Father Karras.
