Los Angeles, Jan. 28 -- Diane Lane has officially joined the cast of filmmaker Mike Flanagan's forthcoming story in "The Exorcist" franchise, lining up alongside Scarlett Johansson and Jacobi Jupe.
The film, written and directed by Flanagan, is not positioned as a sequel to 2023's The Exorcist: Believer but instead unfolds as an entirely new story within the established mythology.
Flanagan will direct from his own script, with production taking place in New York City. He's also producing via his Red Room Pictures banner, alongside David Robinson for Morgan Creek Entertainment and Jason Blum for Blumhouse-Atomic Monster. Exec producers include Alexandra Magistro for Red Room Pictures and Ryan Turek for Blumhouse-Atomic Monster.
