It’s official – The Exorcist: Believer is the title for the upcoming Exorcist reboot, which sees the return of original actress, Ellen Burstyn.
During Universal’s panel at CinemaCon 2023, horror boss Jason Blum and David Gordon Green took to the stage to confirm The Exorcist reboot’s official title… and reveal a little more about what to expect.
“It will extend and update the [1976] original,” said Blum, “like Green did with Halloween.”
Universal also revealed our first look at The Exorcist: Believer with an exclusive clip, showing that two girls are possessed by demons this time around… and it’s pretty gruesome.
Leslie Odom Jr plays the father of one of the girls, who drops his daughter and her friend off at school before they mysteriously vanish. The girls are found in the woods 3 days later, but there’s something not quite right…
Cue tubular bells and demonic head turns, right?
The children are acting strange, gazing into mirrors and having seizures, with one of them even turning up at church in a white dress, covered in blood. Several clips of the girls reveal images clearly inspired by the original Exorcist, with the girls appearing with upside-down crosses scratched into their foreheads. IGN’s Jim Vejvoda said that they “look like Regan from the original.”
The Exorcist debuted in 1976 and starred Ellen Burstyn as Chris MacNeil – an actress and mother who finds her daughter Regan (Linda Blair) possessed by a demonic presence. The upcoming reboot also sees the return of Burstyn’s character, Chris MacNeil, who is approached to help free the two new children from the clutches of evil.
The Exorcist: Believer is heading to theaters in October 2023.
