Jason Blum’s words about “Halloween Kills (2021)’s” Release Date
“Halloween Kills” was supposed to be the blockbuster of the October movie season.
Green’s previous installment, the Blumhouse-backed 2018 “Halloween” reboot, opened to $76.2 million (the highest opening in the horror franchise’s history) and ended its run with a hefty $255 million globally.
The pandemic forced Universal and Blumhouse to announce in July “Halloween Kills” would be moving from October 16, 2020 to October 2021.
In a new interview with Forbes, producer Jason Blum says a second release delay is out of the question.
“If this is still going on next Halloween? No, we’re not holding it, Halloween Kills’ is coming out next October come hell or high water, vaccine or no vaccine. It is coming out”, Blum said.
“Halloween Kills” and “The Forever Purge” were the two Blumhouse franchise titles that bumped into 2021 as a result of the pandemic.
The studio’s “Craft” reboot, “The Craft: Legacy,” went a different course by abandoning its planned theatrical release for a PVOD launch on October 31.
Why save “Halloween Kills” for theaters and put “The Craft: Legacy” on PVOD? Blumhouse said timing was everything.
