The official trailer for Halloween Ends states that this is it…this is definitely, without a doubt, the final battle between Laurie Strode and Michael Myers. The end. Period. This is Laurie Strode’s last stand.
The trailer only shows Laurie and Michael, and the snippets of fight scenes look brutal. But I’d be lying if I said I completely believe their story will come to an end with Halloween Ends. I’m adopting a wait-and-see attitude.
In addition to Jamie Lee Curtis, the cast includes Andi Matichak as Allyson, Rohan Campbell as Corey Cunningham, Will Patton as Officer Frank Hawkins, Kyle Richards as Lindsey Wallace, and James Jude Courtney as The Shape.
David Gordon Green directs from a screenplay by Paul Brad Logan (Manglehorn), Chris Bernier (The Driver series), Danny McBride, and David Gordon Green, based on characters created by John Carpenter and Debra Hill. Malek Akkad, Jason Blum, and Bill Block produce, with John Carpenter, Jamie Lee Curtis, Danny McBride, David Gordon Green, Ryan Freimann, Ryan Turek, Andrew Golov, Thom Zadra, and Christopher H. Warner executive producing.
Universal Pictures will release Halloween Ends in theaters on October 14, 2022.
Halloween Ends Description:
Icon Jamie Lee Curtis returns for the last time as Laurie Strode, horror’s first “final girl” and the role that launched Curtis’ career. Curtis has portrayed Laurie for more than four decades now, one of the longest actor-character pairings in cinema history. When the franchise relaunched in 2018, Halloween shattered box office records, becoming the franchise’s highest-grossing chapter and set a new record for the biggest opening weekend for a horror film starring a woman.
Four years after the events of last year’s Halloween Kills, Laurie is living with her granddaughter Allyson (Matichak) and is finishing writing her memoir. Michael Myers hasn’t been seen since. Laurie, after allowing the specter of Michael to determine and drive her reality for decades, has decided to liberate herself from fear and rage and embrace life. But when a young man, Corey Cunningham (Campbell), is accused of killing a boy he was babysitting, it ignites a cascade of violence and terror that will force Laurie to finally confront the evil she can’t control, once and for all.
