Blumhouse has become a power house in the horror genre. Last year, the studio was responsible for rebooting and releasing the highest grossing slasher film of all time, Halloween.This year, the studio is set to reboot another cult classic, The Craft.
Production Weekly released a a listing for a Craft reboot, including some early info about the crew of fimmakers involved, a proposed shooting start, and even a loose synopsis:
Craft star Robin Tunney has previously spoken about the possibility of a reboot or sequel – and what would be required to make it worthwhile:
“I feel like in order to make it seem culturally relevant, they need to do something [new] and do it quite well. They just can’t pick it up where it left off and it’s all of our kids or something,” Tunney pointed out. “Generations of people have watched it. It’s the idea of somebody just trying to monetize that and not caring if it’s good or not would be sad. I would love to do it if I thought it was going to be cool. I’m so proud of the fact that I was in a movie that has been loved by so many generations of people and watched at so many sleepovers. It’s an honor.”
With the success of Blumhouse, it’s hard not to get excited about this potential reboot.
