The Pope’s Exorcist 2 is reportedly in development. The news comes nearly two weeks after the theatrical release of the Russell Crowe-led supernatural horror thriller. The film currently holds a worldwide gross of $52 million against its reported budget of $18 million.
Bloody Disgusting brings word that Screen Gems has already started developing The Pope’s Exorcist 2. Further details about the potential sequel’s plot are still being kept under wraps, but the outlet’s sources note that the Oscar-winning actor is expected to reprise his role as Father Gabriele Amorth.
The Pope’s Exorcist was directed by Overlord‘s Julius Avery from a screenplay written by Michael Petroni and Evan Spiliotopoulos. The story is inspired by actual cases of Father Gabriele Amorth, who had previously written memoirs about his experience, including 1999’s An Exorcist Tells His Story and 2002’s An Exorcist: More Stories.
“It follows Amorth as he investigates a young boy’s terrifying possession and ends up uncovering a centuries-old conspiracy the Vatican has desperately tried to keep hidden,” reads the synopsis.
The film stars Russell Crowe (Gladiator), Daniel Zovatto (Don’t Breathe), Alex Essoe (Starry Eyes), and Franco Nero (Django). It is produced by Doug Belgrad, Michael Patrick Kaczmarek, and Jeff Katz, with Jo Homewood, Sophie Cassidy, and Edward J. Siebert, SJ.
