![50 years after the original, 'The Exorcist' is revived with this direct sequel to the first film. Ellen Burstyn is confirmed to return as Chris MacNeil, mother of the possessed Regan and keep your head on a swivel for a potential surprise cameo from Linda Blair. Filmmaker David Gordon Green is planning a trilogy that ignores the existing sequels and series that followed 'The Exorcist' (1973), much like Green did with his 'Halloween' legacy sequels that brought Jamie Lee Curtis back to that franchise. Green, who broke out with raunchy comedies and stirring indie dramas, sees 'The Exorcist' as a brand new challenge. "To me, it's as different as making 'Stronger' and 'Pineapple Express.' ['Halloween' and 'The Exorcist'] are just so unbelievably different. One is very primal and the other is very academic," says Green. Leslie Odom Jr. ('Glass Onion,' 'Hamilton') stars as the father of a possessed child, who seeks out Burstyn's character for support since she's been there, done that. Lidya Jewett ('Vivo,' "Good Girls") plays the bedeviled young daughter, and Ann Dowd ("The Handmaid's Tale," 'Hereditary') plays her nurse. 'The Exorcist: Believer' haunts your local theater in October 2023.](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BMGIxY2ViNWEtNzFiNi00ZTA5LTljZGItMTYyZDFkOGJjMzdlXkEyXkFqcGdeQWFsZWxvZw@@._V1_QL75_UX1000_CR0,0,1000,563_.jpg)
