Paramount has a cast for its new Paranormal Activity film, which will be an “retooling” of the franchise. The Wrap reports that Emily Bader, Roland Buck III, Dan Lippert and Henry Ayers-Brown are set to star in the new film, which will be written by Christoper Landon and directed by William Eubank (Underwater). Landon (Freaky, Happy Death Day) is a veteran of the Paranormal Activity franchise, having written the second through fourth films as well as the spin-off Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones.

The franchise will not be a remake or direct sequel, but instead is an “unexpected retooling” of the previous franchise that will continue the found footage approach. The film is currently shooting and is headed to Paramount+, though it is not known if it will keep its originally-planned March 4th, 2022 release date.
