Official Title of David Gordon Green’s 'Exorcist' Sequel is 'THE EXORCIST: BELIEVER'

 

David Gordon Green’s upcoming legacy sequel to ‘The Exorcist’ has been the talk of the horror community since it was announced and the official title was announced at CinemaCon tonight – The Exorcist: Believer.

Gordon Green is directing the brand new sequel to The Exorcist for Universal, Blumhouse and Morgan Creek that will pave the way for a new trilogy. The first film in the trilogy will be released theatrically on October 13, 2023, with Leslie Odom Jr. starring alongside Ellen Burstyn, who will be reprising her role as Chris MacNeil from the original 1973 movie.

The plot details we were given last year were fairly light.

“Odom Jr. will play the father of a possessed child. Desperate for help, he tracks down Ms. Burstyn’s character.”

Ann Dowd (Hereditary), Lidya Jewett (Netflix’s Nightbooks), Raphael Sbarge (“Gaslit”), Jennifer Nettles (The Righteous Gemstones), and Olivia Marcum are also on board.

Peter Sattler (Broken Diamonds) and Gordon Green wrote the script for The Exorcist, which features a story by Green, Scott Teems (Halloween Kills) and Danny McBride (Halloween).
