While it was previously slated to come out this September, the theatrical release of The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It has unsurprisingly been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
According to Exhibitor Relations, The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It is now scheduled to come out from Warner Bros. on June 4th, 2021, pushing it back nearly nine months from its previous September 11th, 2020 release date.
Directed by Michael Chaves (The Curse of la Llorona), the latest installment of The Conjuring franchise will feature the return of Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga as Ed and Lorraine Warren.
Stay tuned to Daily Dead for more updates, and for additional details, we have the previous press release with more info:
“The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It” reveals a chilling story of terror, murder and unknown evil that shocked even experienced real-life paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. One of the most sensational cases from their files, it starts with a fight for the soul of a young boy, then takes them beyond anything they’d ever seen before, to mark the first time in U.S. history that a murder suspect would claim demonic possession as a defense.
Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga return to star as Ed and Lorraine Warren, under the direction of Michael Chaves. The film also stars Ruairi O’Connor, Sarah Catherine Hook, and Julian Hilliard.
“The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It” was produced by James Wan and Peter Safran, who have collaborated on all the “Conjuring” Universe films. Chaves (“The Curse of La Llorona”) directed from a screenplay by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick (“The Conjuring 2,” “Aquaman”), story by James Wan & David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick. Serving as executive producers were Richard Brener, Dave Neustadter, Victoria Palmeri, Michael Clear, Judson Scott, and Michelle Morrissey.
The behind-the-scenes creative team reunited “Conjuring” Universe contributors including director of photography Michael Burgess, production designer Jennifer Spence, costume designer Leah Butler and composer Joseph Bishara, along with the director’s editor from “The Curse of La Llorona,” Peter Gvozdas.
“The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It” is the seventh film in the “Conjuring” Universe, the largest horror franchise in history, which has grossed more than $1.8 billion worldwide. It includes the first two “Conjuring” films, as well as “Annabelle” and “Annabelle: Creation,” “The Nun,” and “Annabelle Comes Home.”
A New Line Cinema presentation, it will be distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures.
