Hunter Doohan (“Wednesday”), Luciane Buchanan (“The Night Agent”), and Tandi Wright (Pearl) are set to star opposite Souheila Yacoub (Dune: Part Two) in Evil Dead Burn, Deadline reports.
The sixth film in the beloved horror franchise will release in theaters on July 24, 2026 via New Line and Warner Bros.
Sébastien Vaniček (Infested) directs from a script he co-wrote with Florent Bernard (Infested).
Plot details have not been released, but Vaniček recently said, “I told the studio that I wanted to make a nasty film, a film that hurts, from which you come away tested. I’m going to put all the horror I have inside, it will be cathartic, and if I haven’t ruined my career and I can continue to make films behind it, I will move on to something other than horror!”
Evil Dead creator Sam Raimi and franchise producer Rob Tapert will produce via their Ghost House Pictures. Evil Dead star Bruce Campbell and Evil Dead Rise filmmaker Lee Cronin executive produce alongside Romel Adam and Jose Canas, both of whom worked on Evil Dead Rise.
Another new Evil Dead movie is also in early development from writer-director Francis Galluppi (The Last Stop in Yuma County).
