A direct sequel to director David Gordon Green’s global smash hits Halloween (2018) and Halloween Kills, Halloween Ends is directed by Green from a script he co-wrote with returning collaborator Danny McBride and series newcomers Paul Brad Logan and Chris Bernier.

Based on characters created by John Carpenter and Debra Hill, Halloween Ends is produced by Malek Akkad, Jason Blum and Bill Block. John Carpenter, Jamie Lee Curtis, Jeanette Volturno, Couper Samuelson, Danny McBride, David Gordon Green, Ryan Freimann, Andrew Golov, Thom Zadra and Christopher H. Warner are executive producers. Ryan Turek is overseeing the project for Blumhouse.

Returning to reprise her role of final girl “Laurie Strode” which she originated in John Carpenter’s immortal classic 1978 film Halloween, Jamie Lee Curtis is joined by original cast members Nick Castle and Kyle Richards. Additional cast includes James Jude Courtney, Andi Matichak, Rohan Campbell and Will Patton.

The official Halloween Ends synopsis from Universal reads:

After 45 years, the most acclaimed, revered horror franchise in film history reaches its epic, terrifying conclusion as Laurie Strode faces off for the last time against the embodiment of evil, Michael Myers, in a final confrontation unlike any captured on-screen before. Only one of them will survive.

Icon Jamie Lee Curtis returns for the last time as Laurie Strode, horror’s first “final girl” and the role that launched Curtis’ career. Curtis has portrayed Laurie for more than four decades now, one of the longest actor-character pairings in cinema history. When the franchise relaunched in 2018, Halloween shattered box office records, becoming the franchise’s highest-grossing chapter and set a new record for the biggest opening weekend for a horror film starring a woman.

“Four years after the events of last year’s Halloween Kills, Laurie is living with her granddaughter Allyson (Andi Matichak) and is finishing writing her memoir. Michael Myers hasn’t been seen since. Laurie, after allowing the specter of Michael to determine and drive her reality for decades, has decided to liberate herself from fear and rage and embrace life. But when a young man, Corey Cunningham (Rohan Campbell; The Hardy Boys, Virgin River), is accused of killing a boy he was babysitting, it ignites a cascade of violence and terror that will force Laurie to finally confront the evil she can’t control, once and for all.“

Kyle Richards to Return as ‘Lindsey Wallace’ in Halloween Ends

December 8, 2021 by Sean Decker

According to Variety, actress Kyle Richards has closed a deal to reprise her role of ‘Lindsey Wallace’ in Halloween Ends, the final installment in director David Gordon Green’s new trilogy of films in the Halloween series.

Richards joins returning series star Jamie Lee Curtis in the film, who she first acted beside in John Carpenter’s classic 1978 film Halloween, and again in this year’s Halloween Kills.

“When my character didn’t die (in Halloween Kills), I was like, ‘Uhh, hello!” Richard quipped to Variety in a recent conversation. “The last movie, I saw Jamie on the set, but we didn’t have stuff together. So, I’m really hoping that there is more stuff together (in Halloween Ends). I can’t talk about any storylines, but all I can say is that we start filming in January (2022), and I’m so excited to return with Jamie Lee Curtis and David Gordon Green.”

Of the plot of Halloween Ends, which is set for release from Universal Pictures on October 14, 2022, co-writer (with Danny McBride, Paul Brad Logan and Chris Bernier) and director Green recently teased (via Indiewire) a “very different tone. There’s not a lot of games in it, there’s not a lot of wittiness and retro joy. It’s kind of a coming-of-age film, and it’s a very different tone. And that’s what excited me about it, is to have the three chapters that I’ve been involved in be very different from each other. They are all there to honor Carpenter, but aren’t necessary just emulating him.”

The filmmaker continued, “I sent Carpenter the new draft of Halloween Ends the other night, and I said, ‘If it feels too ‘Christine,’ let me know.’ For Halloween Ends, it’s just a love of Carpenter, you know. It’s more than just, ‘Hey, here’s a character and a community that you’ve created.’ It’s, ‘Here’s an appreciation of your legendary body of work.”

Produced by Trancas International Films, Miramax and Blumhouse Productions and based on characters created by series originators John Carpenter and Debra Hill, Halloween Ends will be produced by Malek Akkad, Jason Blum and Bill Block. Green, McBride, Carpenter, Jamie Lee Curtis, Jeanette Volturno, Couper Samuelson and Ryan Freimann will serve as executive producers, with Ryan Turek overseeing for Blumhouse.

With Universal Pictures Home Entertainment Twitter ‘Watch Party’ of Halloween (2018) haven taken place this past Saturday, director David Gordon Green revealed some details of the upcoming Halloween Kills and Halloween Ends, including the status of the trailer of the former (see our coverage here). The conversation of course centered primarily around Halloween, with the film’s principals, including Green, stars Jamie Lee Curtis, Judy Greer, Andi Matichak, James Jude Courtney and Nick Castle, along with producers Jason Blum, Ryan Turek and John Carpenter offering some insight into the film, including its original ending.

Of note, Green revealed (via the @blumhouse Twitter account) that the scene in which Drew Schied’s character of ‘Oscar’ is dispatched by Myers was not only shut down early, but that it was the most difficult to shoot, with Matichak providing a couple of behind-the-scene shots (see them below).

Scene in the backyard with Oscar. Toughest night of the shoot. Got shut down by the cops and had limited footage. Much love to Editor Tim Alverson for making it work. #HalloweenAtHome

Halloween: 45 Years of Terror to Take Over the Pasadena Convention Center in 2023!

Every five years since 2003, fans from the Halloween franchise have traveled across the globe to celebrate one of the most endearing, imposing, and enduring horror movie franchises of all time. John Carpenter’s Halloween premiered in cinemas and on drive-in screens 45 years ago, changing the landscape of horror cinema forever.

The movie served as the launching pad for a series of films that would span thirteen entries to date. In fact, earlier this month, the original Halloween stars Jamie Lee Curtis (“Laurie Strode”), Nick Castle (“The Shape, Michael Myers”), and co-creator John Carpenter (the original film’s director and composer), returned to theaters once again for HALLOWEEN ENDS! What better time than now to start building hype for 45 Years of Terror!?

That’s right! Mark your calendars! Halloween: 45 Years of Terror is set to return to Pasadena, California, from September 29th through October 1st, 2023!

For this special anniversary convention event, the Producer of the Halloween Franchise, Trancas International Films, is once again teaming up with Sean Clark (who helped organize the Halloween conventions with the 25th anniversary in 2003, as well as the 30th (2008), 35th (2013), and 40th (2018).

HorrorHound Ltd. also returns after having helped put on the successful H40 event in 2018. HorrorHound Ltd. are responsible for the Midwest events, HorrorHound Weekend, which aim to deliver what is sure to be the largest Halloween convention to date. Celebrity guests (including directors, stars, and crew) from all thirteen Halloween films are set to be in attendance as H45 takes over the Pasadena Convention Center.
