Happy Death Day director Chris Landon dropped a tidbit in a recent interview about his upcoming film for Blumhouse. He is extremely vague in his response, but says that it will leave audiences asking, “why hasn’t that been done before?”
In an interview with Comic Book, Landon says:
I can’t get into specifics at all, which I would love nothing more than to do, But I can say that, this is so vague, but I am so excited to go make this movie.
It’s one of those movies that you sort of go, ‘Wait, why hasn’t that been done before?’ That’s really been the line that we’ve gotten the most when the script has gone out, as we’ve been casting and getting our crew assembled.
That’s been the thing I’ve heard over and over again. ‘Wait, wait, they haven’t done this yet?’ And I’m like, ‘Nope.”
It’s a really fun movie. I hope people love it. I’m very excited to work with Jason [Blum] again. It’s a really good home for a filmmaker.
I get to really do what I want to do and that’s rare in this business. I’m excited. There will be more details coming soon. I know that.
I feel like at some point Universal is going to make some kind of an announcement, I just can’t say anything yet.
Well, it really can’t get any more obscure than that. It is assumable that this new movie will be a horror film, but as of now, it really is anyones guess. We can speculate all day long, but if anything Blumhouse hits theaters, I am there.
We will just have to stay tuned for more information from Chris Landon or Blumhouse about this big movie announcement!
