Thanks to the visionary Mike Flanagan, known for Doctor Sleep and The Haunting of Hill House, who has signed on to write, direct, and produce a new version of the film.

"The Exorcist is one of the reasons I became a filmmaker, and it is an honor to have the chance to try something fresh, bold, and terrifying within its universe,” Flanagan stated. “Reuniting with my friends at Blumhouse, with whom I’ve made some of my favorite pieces of work, only makes this more exciting.”
