Michael Chaves is in negotiations to direct what is being seen as the fourth and final outing of “The Conjuring” franchise at New Line and Warner Bros. Pictures.
Chaves helmed both the prior 2021 third instalment, “The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It,” and last year’s successful spin-off sequel “, The Nun II”.
David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick, who co-wrote the third instalment with James Wan, penned the screenplay whilst Wan will produce with Peter Safran.
Plot details are under wraps but, once again, will follow supernatural investigators Ed and Lorrain Warren. Actors Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga are expected to return for the film which will shoot this summer in Atlanta.
Which cases left the film could tackle is unclear. The two most obivous ones are the Smurl haunting and the Snedeker House which have been done on film before in 1990’s “The Haunted” and 2009’s “The Haunting in Connecticut” respectively.
The film, currently going by the title “The Conjuring 4,” has been in the works since early last year. The overall franchise has led to over $2.1 billion at the box office.
