Writer Says A Director Is Set For Paranormal Activity Reboot

Paranormal Activity’s reboot has a director, according to writer Christopher Landon. Landon, who wrote the second through fourth entries of the franchise as well as Happy Death Day and Freaky, said while speaking with Dread Central about the latter film that the reboot film, which he is scripting, now has a director.

“I’m writing the new Paranormal Activity movie; we’re rebooting that franchise,” Landon said. “I’m super excited about the director, but I can’t say who it is because they won’t let me [laughs]. He’s a get. He’s awesome … I think people are going to be really surprised by where we’re taking this thing.”

The film would be a restart for the franchise after Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension wrapped up the first continuity in 2015. The new film is set for a March 4th, 2022 release.
