Paramount Dates Next ‘Paranormal Activity’ Movie for 2027!
Breaking: Paramount is keeping May spooky, and will release the next Paranormal Activity movie on May 21, 2027, reports THR.
The untitled feature is produced by franchise newcomer James Wan (Saw, Insidious, The Conjuring) and directed by Ian Tuason, with plot details kept under wraps.
The site notes that this will be the eighth film in the franchise that began life with Oren Peli’s ultra low-budget, 2007 film that grossed $194.2 million and is considered one of the most profitable movies of all time.
“Originally shot for just $15,000, Jason Blum and Steven Schneider discovered the feature and injected additional funds into the film before releasing it and turning it into a sleeper hit that helped popularize the found footage genre.
“Blum will produce for his and Wan’s Blumhouse-Atomic Monster, while Peli produces for his Solana Films. Paramount is co-producing and co-financing with Blumhouse-Atomic Monster.
“In addition to the original film, the Paranormal franchise entries include Paranormal Activity 2 (2010), Paranormal Activity 3 (2011), Paranormal Activity 4 (2012), The Marked Ones (2014), The Ghost Dimension (2015), and Next of Kin (2021). In all, they have grossed a combined $900 million globally.”
