Check out the San Diego Comic-Con exclusive Halloween poster
Jamie Lee Curtis returns to her iconic role as Laurie Strode, who comes to her final confrontation with Michael Myers, the masked figure who has haunted her since she narrowly escaped his killing spree on Halloween night four decades ago.
It seems a British documentary crew comes to the US to visit Michael in prison for a retrospective of the maniac’s night of terror. Obviously, things do not end well!
Master of horror John Carpenter executive produced the film and serves as creative consultant on this film, joining forces with cinema’s current leading producer of horror, Jason Blum (Get Out, Split, The Purge, Paranormal Activity). Inspired by Carpenter’s classic, filmmakers David Gordon Green and Danny McBride crafted a story that carves a new path from the events in the landmark 1978 film, and Green also directs.
Check out this fantastic new poster by the legendary artist Bill Sienkiewicz. The Halloween Twitter shared it and it is an exclusive for San Diego Comic-Con. Quite frankly, it is absolutely stunning.
Judy Greer plays Karen Strode, the daughter of Curtis’ character, and Andi Matichak plays Allyson, the granddaughter of Laurie Strode.
Nick Castle returns to the role of Michael Myers, along with stunt performer and actor James Jude Courtney. Virginia “Ginny” Gardner, Miles Robbins, Dylan Arnold, and Drew Scheid also star as friends of Andi Matichak’s character.
Halloween is also produced by Malek Akkad, whose Trancas International Films has produced the Halloween series since its inception, and Bill Block (Elysium, District 9). In addition to Carpenter and Curtis, Green and McBride will executive produce under their Rough House Pictures banner.
Universal Pictures will release Trancas International Films, Blumhouse Productions and Miramax’s Halloween on Friday, October 19, 2018.
