It was recently announced that there will be a new Halloween movie set to be released in October 2017. Blumhouse Productions will be producing along with horror legend and Halloween creator John Carpenter. Jason Blum had this to say:
“All of us felt that the next Halloween movie shouldn’t exist without John Carpenter. We were saying, when we were first talking about it, ‘We’ve gotta do this with the guy who started it all,’…..”
Jason Blum continued on to say:
“He’s going to produce, and hopefully score… he drives a hard bargain but I am a good negotiator, so hopefully he is going to score it too. He’s going to godfather us, be involved with this movie creatively, and in the initial few conversations that we’ve had with directors, they’ve felt the same way we did: No one wanted to do this without John. So we are real excited he’s here. He is the main attraction and the main event.”
John Carpenter had this to say:
“So… I decided, after bitching for years and years about Halloween sequels, I would come aboard and shepherd this thing. I’ll help, support the director, and since I’m here with Malek Akkad, and the horror superstar Jason Blum, what could go wrong? So, we’re going to give it a try.”
It will be interesting to see how the new Halloween will be with Carpenter on board. As many already know Rob Zombie rebooted the series nine years ago with Halloween (2007) and Halloween II ( 2009). Zombie’s portrayal differed from the original in that Michael Myers was given more of a backstory and reasoning behind his evilness which turned out controversial among fans.

Here’s hoping that the new reboot will keep in line with the original.
