We’d heard rumblings of just such a thing, and now the Horror Master himself has confirmed that two new Halloween movies are on the way.

John Carpenter has revealed that The Shape will be back to cause havoc for poor Laurie Strode and her family in Halloween Kills on October 16th, 2020 and then in Halloween Ends in October 15th, 2021. And yes, that 2021 effort is currently set to bring this legendary horror franchise to a close.

Earlier this month, there was talk of two Halloween offerings being shot back-to-back, and that is indeed to be the case.

David Gordon Green – director of last year’s Halloween – will be back to helm both of these new films, and he’s co-writing these pictures with Danny McBride, Scott Teems, Chris Bernier and Paul Brad Logan.

Jamie Lee Curtis will reprising her iconic role of Laurie Strode, with it presumed that Judy Greer and Andi Matichak will also be back as Laurie’s daughter and granddaughter. Likewise, John Carpenter will be returning to oversee the antics of the nefarious Michael Myers.

Expect more on all things Halloween as we get it.
