It’s the end of the era with the upcoming arrival of The Conjuring: Last Rites. The first two-minute teaser is incredibly disturbing and seems to signal that phase one of the franchise is going out with a horrifying bang.
Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga reprise their roles as Ed and Lorraine Warren for likely the last time. Mia Tomlinson plays Judy Warren, Ben Hardy is Tony Spera, and Steve Coulter is Father Gordon. The cast also includes Rebecca Calder, Elliot Cowan, Kíla Lord Cassidy, Beau Gadsdon, John Brotherton, and Shannon Kook.
James Wan directed the first two The Conjuring films, and Michael Chaves directed 2021’s The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It. Chaves returns to direct this ninth entry overall in the franchise. Ian Goldberg, Richard Naing, and David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick wrote the screenplay, with Michael Clear, Judson Scott, Natalia Safran, John Rickard, Hans Ritter, and David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick executive producing.
Chaves’ behind-the-scenes team includes director of photography Eli Born, production designer John Frankish, editors Elliot Greenberg and Gregory Plotkin, visual effects supervisor Scott Edelstein, visual effects producer Eric Bruneau, and costume designer Graham Churchyard.
New Line Cinema has set a September 5, 2025 theatrical release.
