The Exorcist is an upcoming American supernatural horror film written and directed by Mike Flanagan. The film is a reboot of The Exorcist franchise and the seventh installment overall. Jason Blum will serve as a producer on the film through his Blumhouse Productions banner, alongside Atomic Monster, David Robinson through his Morgan Creek Entertainment banner, and Flanagan through his Red Room Pictures banner. It stars Scarlett Johansson, Diane Lane, Jacobi Jupe, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Laurence Fishburne, Sasha Calle, John Leguizamo, Hamish Linklater, Carl Lumbly, John Gallagher Jr., Benjamin Pajak, and Carla Gugino.
Prior to the project's announcement, a sequel was planned for The Exorcist: Believer (2023) entitled The Exorcist: Deceiver, with David Gordon Green originally set to return as director, but left the project following the critical and box office disappointment of Believer. In May 2024, Deceiver and its sequel were officially canceled when the reboot was announced.
The Exorcist is scheduled to be released on March 12, 2027 by Universal Pictures.
