Blumhouse’s Paranormal Activity reboot was all set to hit theaters on March 19th before Paramount has pushed it back almost a full year later to March 4, 2022. But it’s all good tonight as we have word via screenwriter (and Freaky director) Christopher Landon that the new movie has snagged its director.
Landon tells Dread Central: “I’m writing the new Paranormal Activity movie; we’re rebooting that franchise. I’m super excited about the director, but I can’t say who it is because they won’t let me. He’s a get. He’s awesome! I think people are going to be really surprised by where we’re taking this thing.”

The original centers on a couple who become increasingly disturbed by what appears to be a supernatural presence. Hoping to capture it on film, they set up video cameras in their house but are not prepared for the terror that follows.
It sports an 83% on Rotten Tomatoes with a Critics Consensus that reads: Using its low-budget effects and mockumentary method to great result, Paranormal Activity turns a simple haunted house story into 90 minutes of relentless suspense.
