Jamie Lee Curtis to Return to Halloween Franchise
She’s been back before and now she returns once again. Jamie Lee Curtis is to reprise the role of Laurie Strode for the new sequel to Halloween.
Curtis took to Twitter to announce her return to the franchise. She last made an appearance as Laurie Strode in 2002's Halloween: Resurrection.
Billed by Blumhouse Productions and Universal as the ‘final’ Halloween (yeah, right), the latest final instalment comes from director David Gordon Green, who wrote the script alongside Danny McBride. The original film's writer/director John Carpenter is aboard as executive producer and will also offer his deep knowledge of Myers and co. as a consultant.
There’s little else known about the film other than it won’t be a comedy horror film and that it will be a sequel rather than another reboot. Curtis' Strode will once again be facing the killer who nearly ended her life decades ago.
The latest Halloween movie has a US release date set for 19 October 2018.
