Here’s everything we know about the third part of Nun ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

The buzz is palpable: The Nun 3 could be on its way! Fans are excitedly splitting up after The Nun 2 raked in $101.7M worldwide. Warner Bros. hasn’t officially confirmed it yet, but that eerie anticipation’s hard to ignore! Let’s hope for more ghostly thrills soon!

Valak: The Demonic Star

The franchise’s thrived, spinning out from the spine-tingling Conjuring series. Anticipation for The Nun 3 just hit the roof! Director Michael Chaves teased fans last month, hinting that the next film might connect the dots between the original Conjuring (2013) and The Nun 2. Sounds like we’re in for some spooky timeline twists! This connection offers a fresh twist on the chilling universe fans adore. Chaves remarked, “I wouldn’t want to give anything away, but this is continuing the timeline.”

He pointed out...

One of the most iconic on-screen horror couples of the past decade is about to make their final appearance in the upcoming film The Conjuring: Last Rites. Director James Wan recently took to his Instagram page, @creepypuppet, to share a post signaling the official start of filming for the fourth and final film in the main series.

The photo shows chairs for Ed and Lorraine Warren, the infamous demonologists based on the real couple of the same name. Within The Conjuring Universe, Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson have played them in all three main films, starting with the 2013 film, along with making appearances in a few others, such as Annabelle Comes Home.

The Conjuring: Last Rites. Currently, Warner Bros. Pictures has scheduled it to be released theatrically on September 5, 2025.

No plot details have been confirmed for Last Rites yet,...

Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga will be back one more time in The Conjuring: Last Rites, and we’ve learned that filming on the planned final installment is now underway.

Mia Tomlinson (The Beast Must Die) and Ben Hardy (X-Men: Apocalypse) also star, with Michael Chaves (The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, The Nun II) directing.

The Conjuring: Last Rites will release in theaters September 5, 2025.

David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick (The Conjuring 2) wrote the screenplay for the fourth movie. Franchise mainstays James Wan and Peter Safran are on board to produce.

The Conjuring films are based on the real-life case files of paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, played by Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga respectively.

In addition to another movie, The Conjuring is also headed to the small screen. A series for Max was originally announced in April 2023, and development continues here in 2024.

There are currently eight films...

The Conjuring film franchise is set to come to an end with the fourth installment, The Conjuring: Last Rites, which Warner Bros. has scheduled for a theatrical release on September 5, 2025 release. We had previously heard that this movie would be filming in the Atlanta, Georgia area, but apparently they’re doing some work across the pond as well, as we also heard that filming was scheduled to take place in London, England from September 10th through October 10th this year. Whatever the schedules and locations may be, The Conjuring: Last Rite is indeed currently in production – which producer James Wan has just proven by sharing an image from the set!

Showing the chairs meant for franchise stars Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga, Wan wrote, “Always good to see and hang out with old friends. Gonna miss everyone. End of an era.“

So it makes sense that the first two cast members to be announced, other than returning franchise stars Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga, are both English. Deadline reports that Wilson and Farmiga have been joined in the cast by Ben Hardy (Love at First Sight) and Mia Tomlinson (The Lost Pirate Kingdom). Details on the characters they’re playing have not been revealed.

We don’t have any plot...

Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga will be back (at least) one more time in The Conjuring: Last Rites, and Deadline reports that Mia Tomlinson and Ben Hardy (X-Men: Apocalypse) have also signed on for the upcoming installment.

Michael Chaves (The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, The Nun II) is returning to the franchise to direct The Conjuring: Last Rites, which is reportedly said to be the final installment in the main series of The Conjuring movies.

Horror fans, we've just learned some new information about the upcoming supernatural horror film The Conjuring: Last Rites. Two actors have just been added to the movie's cast in undisclosed roles, Ben Hardy and Mia Tomlinson. They join the previously announced cast that includes Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga.

The Conjuring: Last Rites will be the fourth and final installment in the main series of The Conjuring movies. The other movies that are part of the main series are The Conjuring (2013), The Conjuring 2 (2016) and The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (2021).

American filmmaker Michael Chaves is signed on to direct the horror flick. He previously helmed two movies in The Conjuring Universe, The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It and The Nun II. David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick and James Wan (The Conjuring Universe) came up with the story for the fourth film, and Johnson-McGoldrick wrote the script. Additionally,...

Ben Hardy and Mia Tomlinson have joined Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga on the cast of ‘The Conjuring: Last Rites.’

Plot details are being kept locked up safe in the Warren’s evil relic room for now.

Wilson and Farmiga are reprising their roles as paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, the real-life husband and wife evil spirit warriors ‘The Conjuring’ franchise is based on.

The Conjuring 4 – or The Conjuring: Last Rites – has landed in London for production ahead of its 2025 release. More here.

If you’re keeping track of The Conjuring series of movies and it assorted spin-offs, then just know that to collect them all on physical media you’re going to need to invest in a good shelf from Ikea. Other suppliers are available.

However, in terms of the actual main line of Conjuring films, there have been three. By my reckoning, there have been five direct spin-off movies, so they’re winning. Still, as you’ve probably gleaned from the headline to this story, there’s now a fourth The Conjuring film that’s recently gone before the cameras.

It’s called The Conjuring: Last Rites, and we’re willing to bet a reasonable amount of money that it won’t be the last one. Screen Daily is reporting too...

The next instalment of the horror franchise The Conjuring has begun production in the UK.

The fourth feature is titled Last Rites and sees Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson return as the paranormal investigating couple one final time. Plot details are currently under wraps.

Filming locations include London.

Michael Chaves is directing having previously helmed the 2021 instalment The Devil Made Me Do It and The Conjuring spin-off The Nun II. Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick wrote the screenplay.

It is produced by James Wan for Atomic Monster and Peter Safran for The Safran Company. Co-producers are New Line Cinema and Warner Bros.

The Conjuring film franchise is set to come to an end with the fourth installment, The Conjuring: Last Rites, which Warner Bros. set to give the film a theatrical release on September 5, 2025 release. We had previously heard that this movie would be filming in the Atlanta, Georgia area, but apparently they’ll be doing some work across the pond as well, with filming scheduled to take place in London, England from September 10th through October 10th this year. Industry scooper Daniel Richtman has gotten his hands on a casting call that reveals some details on a few supporting characters that will be required on the set in London.

We don’t have any plot info on The Conjuring: Last Rites at this time, all we know that the story takes place in the United States in the 1980s, but thanks to Richtman and the casting call we know about these characters:

Paranormal investigators Ed (Patrick Wilson) and Lorraine Warren (Vera Farmiga) are suiting up to investigate what could be their final case. Warner Bros. has set a September 5, 2025 release date for The Conjuring 4, which is said to be the final installment of the main series.

The untitled Conjuring movie is set to be directed by Michael Chaves, who is no stranger to the franchise. He helmed The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, as well as The Nun II. Chaves also directed The Curse of La Llorona, which is often mistakenly included in the franchise. While the film has several notable connections to The Conjuring Universe (including an Annabelle easter egg and Tony Amendola reprising his role as Father Perez), Chaves confirmed last year that it’s not part of the franchise.

“There’s so much debate about it and I think I’ve played coy in the past,” Chaves said.

Ed and Lorraine Warren are returning to us in the fictional universe of The Conjuring. According to Variety, Warner Bros. has confirmed the date of the fourth film in the popular horror franchise, and it's set for release in theaters and IMAX on September 5, 2025.

Supposedly, this will also be the "final" film in The Conjuring film series, though I don't necessarily believe that. Even if the mainline films are finished after The Conjuring 4, I'm assuming we'll still see additional installments in the franchise in the form of its spinoff series like The Nun and Annabelle. But we'll see what happens.

Variety says The Conjuring 4 hasn't been officially titled yet, but I've seen conflicting reports indicating it will be called The Conjuring: Last Rites, which would fit with the finality of it all. Still, September 2025 is a long way off, so I wouldn't be surprised if the name undergoes changes between now and then.

Warner Bros has pushed up the release date of Maggie Gyllenhaal’s Frankenstein pic The Bride!, at the same time setting a date for its Untitled Conjuring Finale (fka Untitled Nl Horror Event).

The Bride! will open against Lionsgate’s Saw XI and the Uni kids’ title Gabby’s Dollhouse: The Movie, having been pushed up from October 3 to September 26, 2025, while the final of four Conjuring films is currently the sole feature occupying September 5, 2025. Both titles will open in IMAX.

Marking Gyllenhaal’s follow-up to the Academy Award-nominated Netflix drama The Lost Daughter, The Bride! watches as a lonely Frankenstein (Christian Bale) travel to 1930s Chicago to seek the aide of a Dr. Euphronius in creating a companion for himself. The two reinvigorate a murdered young woman and the Bride is born. She is beyond what either of them intended, igniting a combustible romance, the attention of the police and a wild and radical social movement.

There are currently eight films in The Conjuring Universe, and as we recently learned, a ninth movie is actively in development. Last we heard, Michael Chaves (The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, The Nun II) is returning to the franchise to direct The Conjuring 4, which is reportedly said to be the final installment in the main series of The Conjuring movies.

The Conjuring 4 – which, last we heard, was going by the title The Conjuring: Last Rites – is expected to be the final installment of the series at the heart of the Conjuring Universe… but it’s only the ending when it comes to big screen feature films. Fourteen months ago, it was announced that a The Conjuring TV series is in the works at the Max streaming service, and now Casey Bloys, the chairman and CEO of HBO and Max content, has confirmed that the show is still in development.

When asked what’s in the HBO and Max pipeline, Bloys told Variety, “One of the advantages that I think we have as a company, putting aside HBO for a second, is all the Warner Bros. IP. So after House of the Dragon, the next big tentpole series that we have coming up will be The Penguin with Colin Farrell. That...

Max’s Casey Bloys tells Variety this week, “There are other properties [in development] like The Conjuring, which is a big movie franchise that we’re developing into a series.”

It had been well over a year since we heard a peep about Max’s planned The Conjuring television series, so it’s good to hear it’s still being cooked up. Stay tuned for more soon.

Deadline’s Most Valuable Blockbuster tournament is back. While studios during Covid wildly embraced the theatrical day-and-date model when cinemas were closed, they soon realized there’s nothing more profitable than a theatrical release and the downstreams that come with it. If anything, theatrical is the advertisement for a movie’s longevity in subsequent home entertainment windows. Entering the conversation in 2023 were the streamers, such as Apple, who have also realized the necessity of theatrical to eventize their movies. The financial data pulled together here for Deadline’s Most Valuable Blockbuster Tournament is culled by seasoned and trusted sources.

(Welcome to Tales from the Box Office, our column that examines box office miracles, disasters, and everything in between, as well as what we can learn from them.)

"You can't count it!" That's what producer Peter Safran said to Entertainment Weekly in 2023 about "The Curse of La Llorona" being part of The Conjuring Universe. Safran, who has helped to spearhead the very successful horror franchise alongside James Wan since 2013, did not leave any room for interpretation there. Yet, director Michael Chaves' successful 2019 feature directorial debut contains characters from "Conjuring" films, as well as overt references to events in those stories. Be that as it may, this movie now exists as both an unquestionable hit and a film that narratively exists in The Conjuring Universe but, for technical reasons, actually doesn't.

In the era of cinematic universes, it's an almost unprecedented situation. Why provide connective tissue if the plan isn't to connect these dots?...

Warners Bros has screened their axed Coyote vs. Acme to around 12 buyers we hear with a rigid buy price of $70M+; which is how much the animated live-action hybrid movie cost.

Netflix and Paramount put forth bids, which we told you about, but they were lower than the $70M asking price (between $30M-$50M), therefore in Warner’s eyes, rivals didn’t want the feature for what it cost.

What Deadline has received clarity on is that Warner Bros took a $70M writedown on Q3 earnings, not the upcoming Q4. Nonetheless, the movie, which the Burbank, CA lot decided back in early November not to release — remains in purgatory. That said, we hear the door isn’t officially closed on Coyote vs. Acme‘s prospects yet — it’s just that the Coyote could wind up in the cave with Batgirl.

“No one is doing anything at Warners to push this film for a sale,...

THR reports that Michael Chaves is in negotiations to serve as the director of The Conjuring 4, which is expected to be the final installment of the main series.

Michael Chaves is no stranger to The Conjuring franchise as he was the director of the last installment, The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, and also helmed The Nun II. David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick, who penned the screenplay for the third installment, will return to write this final sequel. Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga are naturally expected to return as Ed and Lorraine Warren, with production looking to start shooting this summer in Atlanta. Plot details are being kept under wraps at this point, but a few ghostly apparitions and demonic possessions are a good bet.

Prior to officially joining The Conjuring franchise with the third movie,...

The hugely successful Conjuring Universe is getting a brand new installment with The Conjuring 4, and THR reports tonight that Michael Chaves is on board to direct.

Chaves just directed Conjuring Universe installment The Nun II, and he also previously directed The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, the main series’ third movie.

The Conjuring 4 is said to be the final installment in the main series, THR notes.

David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick (The Conjuring 2) wrote the screenplay for the fourth movie.

THR adds, “Plot details are being kept six feet under but once again supernatural investigators Ed and Lorrain Warren will face creaky doors, shadows in the windows, inverted crosses, and a demonic possession or two. Stars Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga are expected to return and the feature is eyeing a summer shoot in Atlanta.”

Also returning to produce are franchise mainstays James Wan and Peter Safran.

The Conjuring...

New Line’s The Conjuring movie series is coming back for one last ride. Or one last rite, as it were.

The project, operating currently under the simple title of The Conjuring 4, has been in the works since early last year but has finally landed on a director. And it’s a familiar visage.

Michael Chaves, who helmed the previous installment, 2021’s The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, is in negotiations to direct what is being eyed as the fourth and final outing. The move makes Chaves a true Conjuring Universe player as he also directed last year’s spinoff, The Nun II.

David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick, who co-wrote the third installment with franchise creator James Wan, penned the screenplay.

Wan is producing with Peter Safran.

Plot details are being kept six feet under but once again supernatural investigators Ed and Lorrain Warren will face creaky doors, shadows in the windows,...

Hollywood has always been enamored of franchises. Universal became synonymous with horror movies in the 1930s with their Classic Monsters run, while MGM mined Mickey Rooney's Andy Hardy character for 16 films. And then there's the "Blondie" series based on Chic Young's comic strip, which Columbia Pictures wrung bone dry for a staggering 28 installments.

For the most part, these films were produced quickly and cheaply for a quick score at the box office. It wasn't until 1962, when United Artists made a killing with the first James Bond movie ("Dr. No"), that studios began to view franchises as cash cows. With the subsequent success of the "Pink Panther" and "Planet of the Apes" movies, the industry became increasingly eager to turn its blockbusters into ongoing sagas. This filmmaking approach went into hyperdrive in 1977 with the unprecedented phenomenon of "Star Wars." From that point forward, Hollywood quickly became a franchise-driven town.

“The Nun II” is more evidence that “The Conjuring Universe” is among the most consistent and bankable franchises in Hollywood. It’s a straight-up sequel to “The Nun,” with both films now serving as prequels to “The Conjuring 2.” The Michael Chaves-directed entry earned $268 million worldwide on a $39 million budget. That was up from Chaves’ $197 million-grossing “The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It” released in the Covid/Project Popcorn summer of 2021. It’s also more than the $200 million DC superhero tentpole “The Flash.”

The eight films, begun in 2013 with James Wan’s “The Conjuring,” have earned over $2.25 billion on a combined budget of $71 million. Well, $2.37 billion if you count Michael Chaves’ “The Curse of La Llorona.” That early 2019 flick earned $123 million in early 2019 and contained a handful of “Conjuring” universe treats.

Fun fact: “Emily in Paris,” which films all across the city of Paris and throughout France, was originally slated to film in New York. The idea was to shoot the majority of the Netflix series in the U.S. and head to France for a few weeks to film exteriors of iconic locations. Upon discovering showrunner Darren Starr’s plans, director and executive producer Andy Fleming exclaimed, “This is crazy, you have to shoot [in Paris].”

Referencing the charmingly worn doors in Parisian apartments that would be difficult to recreate in the States, Fleming talked about how he pushed for production to cross the ocean. “I thought, if the writers go over there, they will get in a taxicab going the wrong way around the Louvre, and they will be embarrassed in a restaurant and they will do all of the things that Emily would do, and [that] will inform the writing,” said Fleming.

Some have already seen a screening of the Warner Bros. squashed live-action hybrid animated movie Coyote vs. Acme, and they’re giving a big endorsement on social. As we reported the Warner Bros new motion picture administration of Michael De Luca, Pam Abdy and animation head Bill Damaschke axed the film for a $30M tax writedown. However, now the movie is being shopped with Apple, Amazon and Netflix taking interest. We hear that some of those streamers are catching the movie in the near future.

We also hear that the screening, which drew a huge applause at the end, and had wall-to-wall laughs, had Nun 2 Michael Chaves in attendance as well as Oscar-winning Everything Everywhere All at Once filmmaker Daniel Scheinert, in addition to pic’s cast of Will Forte, Lana Candor and P.J. Byrne and Coyote vs. Acme director Dave Green.

This post contains spoilers for "The Nun II."

It's difficult to encapsulate just how huge The Conjuring Universe truly is. The third successful horror franchise launched by James Wan (following "Insidious" and "Saw") has expanded into three distinct tracks of horror stories: "The Conjuring" films, following Ed and Lorraine Warren; the "Annabelle" films, centered on the titular doll; and "The Nun" films, centered on the demon Valak. "The Nun II" is the latest addition to the series, a massive hit at the box office and a film that laid the groundwork for what feels like the inevitable climax of the decades-spanning story. It feels like we're heading toward a final chapter like The Avengers, but with demons, possessed artifacts, and Patrick Wilson singing Elvis songs.

"The Nun II" is currently available on Digital and is coming to 4K Uhd soon, and in honor of its release, I was fortunate enough...

There are definitely some benefits to watching horror movies at home. For one thing, it's easy to hide under the covers when jump scares get overwhelming, or to pause for popcorn if you need to break the tension (or just really want some popcorn). In the case of the self-referential and foreshadowing-heavy Conjuring Universe, though, catching the latest movie on digital and home media also comes with one extra added benefit: the potential for frame-by-frame Easter egg hunting.

There are Easter eggs aplenty hidden throughout the interconnected franchise that began with "The Conjuring" in 2013, and apparently "The Nun II" is no exception. /Film's Bj Colangelo recently spoke with the director of the latest Conjuring-verse chiller, Michael Chaves, to get the scoop on some of the movie's most rewarding hidden references. Fair warning if you haven't seen "The Nun II" yet: Chaves talks about some of these hidden references in detail,...

“Gen V” Gets Season 2 Renewal

Prime Video’s “Gen V” has passed its freshman year with flying colors and will soon head into its sophomore year! The streamer has officially ordered a second season of the global hit, a spinoff to its beloved superhero satire “The Boys.”

Set in the same universe, “Gen V” centers on Godolkin University, the prestigious superhero-only college where students train to be the next generation of heroes (preferably with lucrative endorsements). But when the students discover something bigger and more sinister is going on at the school than just superpowers and super-popularity, they’re put to the test.

Watch the trailer for “Gen V” Season 1 below:

The series stars Jaz Sinclair, Chance Perdomo, Lizze Broadway, Shelley Conn, Maddie Phillips, London Thor, Derek Luh, Asa Germann, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Sean Patrick Thomas, and Marco Pigossi and also features guest stars Clancy Brown and Jason Ritter, as well...

Five years after the Conjuring Universe entry The Nun wracked up almost $366 million at the global box office, a sequel finally reached the big screen on September 8th. At the start of this month, The Nun II was given a digital release (you can get it at This Link). Now Deadline reports that the movie will be streaming on the Max service just in time for Halloween! The Nun II will be available to watch on Max as of October 27th.

The sequel didn’t replicate the box office success of the first film, but it still did quite well. As of this writing, The Nun II has earned over $257 million worldwide.

The Nun II is directed by Michael Chaves from a screenplay by Akela Cooper and the writing duo of Ian Goldberg and Richard Naing (The Autopsy of Jane Doe). The film has the following synopsis: 1956 – France. A priest is murdered.

“The Nun II” has set a streaming release date on Max just in time for Halloween weekend. The New Line horror sequel will hit Max on Friday, Oct. 27 so those looking for a new horror movie to watch before the spooky holiday will be in luck.

The latest film in the “Conjuring” universe and direct sequel to 2018’s “The Nun” opened in theaters on Sept. 8, so it marks a quick move to streaming even in the wake of the film’s box office success. It’s pulled in $257 million at the worldwide box office so far, which is under the $365 million that the first “Nun” movie pulled in but not too shabby for a budget under $40 million.

The streaming release no doubt serves to bolster Max’s visibility during a time of increased movie-watching as the Halloween season coincides with a surge in demand for horror films.

Michael Chaves, the...

A sequel to the 2018 movie, The Nun II brought The Conjuring Universe back to the big screen last month, and the film has thus far scared up $257 million at the worldwide box office.

The sequel is now available for Digital rental ($19.99) and purchase ($24.99), and we’ve learned today that the new movie is also coming to the Max streaming service for Halloween.

The Nun II comes to Max on October 27, 2023.

The Nun II will later be haunting its way onto 4K and Blu-ray on November 14.

In The Nun II, now playing in theaters, “1956 – France. A priest is murdered. An evil is spreading. The sequel to the worldwide smash hit The Nun follows Sister Irene as she once again comes face to face with the demonic force Valak – The Demon Nun.”

Taissa Farmiga is back as Sister Irene, with Bonnie Aarons again playing the demonic nun known as Valak. Storm Reid...

Halloween is nearly here, and one of this fall’s scariest movies will arrive on streaming just in time for the spooky holiday.

Warner Bros.’ “The Nun II” will begin streaming on Max on Oct. 27, a few days before Halloween. The film, released in theaters on Sept. 8, is the latest chapter in the “Conjuring” horror franchise and opened to a solid $32.6 million at the box office.

The movie follows the characters from the original “Nun,” which was the highest-grossing moving in the entire “Conjuring” universe. Taissa Farmiga, sister of “Conjuring” star Vera Farmiga, returns as Sister Irene in “The Nun II.” Four years after vanquishing the Demon Nun and the evil, possessive entity Valak, things get hellishly twisted once again, this time at a boarding school in France. The cast includes Jonas Bloquet, Storm Reid, Anna Popplewell and Bonnie Aarons as the titular, creepy Nun. Filmmaker Michael Chaves returns to...

New Line’s The Nun II, one of the few bright spots at the fall box office rocked by the actors strikes, will hit Max on Oct. 27. That premiere date is after the pic’s 50-day theatrical window.

The Michael Chaves directed sequel in the Conjuring universe opened to $32.6M and through yesterday counts $84.4M at the domestic box office and over $258M worldwide. The movie ruled the top of the box office for three weekends in a row and returned Warner Bros to the post-Labor Day horror launchpad they first made rich with the 2017 feature take of Stephen King’s It.

The movie follows young Sister Irene’s (Taissa Farmiga) crusade against a sinister, evil Mother Superior spirit, aka Valak, who takes over the souls of people around her. Set in 1956 France, the pic picks up after The Nun when Maurice (Jonas Bloquet) becomes possessed.

With the summer movie season coming to a close, there are still plenty of great Hollywood movies to watch in theatres now. Here is a list of the top 5 Hollywood movies to watch in theatres now, based on critical acclaim, box office success, and audience reviews:

1. The Nun II

The Nun II is a sequel to the 2018 horror film The Nun, in which a priest investigates a mysterious abbey. The film is directed by Michael Chaves, who directed the 2021 horror film The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It. The cast includes Taissa Farmiga as Sister Irene and Anna Popplewell as Sister Frances.

The Nun 2 Trailer

The Nun II has been praised by critics for its atmospheric scares and its strong performances, particularly from Farmiga and Popplewell. The film has also been a box office success, grossing over $100 million worldwide in its opening weekend.

The Nun II is an gothic supernatural horror film directed by Michael Chaves and released in 2023. The screenplay is written by Ian Goldberg, Richard Naing, and Akela Cooper, based on a story by Cooper. This movie serves as a sequel to the 2018 film, The Nun, and is the eighth installment in The Conjuring Universe franchise. The cast includes Taissa Farmiga, Jonas Bloquet, and Bonnie Aarons, who reprise their roles from the first film, along with Storm Reid and Anna Popplewell joining the cast.

As a good sequel, “The Nun II” once again focuses on the elements that made the first one successful: lots of scares and a gothic atmosphere (they say now) with a photography style that emphasizes light and shadow.

Caravaggio’s tenebrism seems to still have its followers, as similar themes are combined, although this time with fewer distorted angles and more scares.

“The Nun II” is one...

Warning: The following contains spoilers for The Nun and The Nun II.

Of all the supernatural beings in The Conjuring Universe, few are as purely evil as the Nun (Bonnie Aarons). This supernatural entity is a demon known as Valak who takes different forms in order to exploit the weaknesses of its targeted victims. The sinister Nun first appears in The Conjuring 2 as a harbinger of death. As the franchise has spiraled, Valak has turned out to be the root cause of much of the underlying possessions connected to the Warrens and their paranormal investigations.

The Nun, a 2018 prequel directed by Corin Hardy, gives this haunting image a harrowing origin story dating back to 1952. A gothic monastery in Cârța, Romania becomes the site of unspeakable evil as Valak takes the form of a pale-faced nun and roams the halls at night. A young novitiate called Sister Irene (Taissa Farmiga...

The Nun II...

Monday Am: It wasn’t a tie as many had Nun 2 and A Haunting in Venice far apart at the box office yesterday, but the New Line horror pic’s second weekend really did win in the end with a $14.5M take, -56%, to the Kenneth Branagh pic’s opening of $14.3M.

Sunday Am: It looks like Hercule Poirot doesn’t have a prayer at winning the box office this weekend, with Kenneth Branagh’s A Haunting in Venice losing No.

Refresh for latest…: Warner Bros/New Line’s The Nun II continued to conjure strong business around the globe this weekend, taking the top spot again worldwide and overseas.

There were No. 1s in the UK, Spain and Italy, and No. 2s in France, Germany and Brazil among the key markets.

Scores are about on par with the last Kenneth Branagh-directed Agatha Christie yarn. IMAX generated $900K offshore.

As someone who actually likes "The Nun" (insert "There are dozens of us!" gif here), I'm pleased to see the sequel to the Conjuring Universe spin-off doubling down on its predecessor's approach of, to paraphrase /Film's Jacob Hall, feeling like the greatest Hammer Horror tabletop role-playing game that's never been made. Directed by Conjuring Universe veteran Michael Chaves, "The Nun II" sees the titular demon Valak (Bonnie Aarons) getting back in the habit of terrorizing the world of the living. Taissa Farmiga is also back as Sister Irene, though Demián Bichir is noticeably absent as Father Burke, a character who we learn sadly died from cholera in between films early on in the "Nun" sequel.

Not bringing Burke back for "The Nun II" makes sense enough from a creative perspective. Between the character's relatable trauma from the events in his past and Bichir's compelling, understated performance, a grounded protagonist like...

Has "The Nun II" signaled the start of a fresh, new subgenre of films? After the success of the Russell Crowe-starring "The Pope's Exorcist," maybe we ought to welcome our newest overlords: supernatural-themed horror movies following associates of the Vatican who investigate paranormal events. Call me crazy, but I know a pattern when I see one!

Okay, maybe that's a bit of a stretch (as much as we'd love to see that happen!), but there's no hiding the fact that audiences simply can't get enough of anything related to filmmaker James Wan's "The Conjuring" universe ... including movies that are lacking the involvement of fan-favorite characters Ed and Lorraine Warren. The opening weekend box office haul of "The Nun II" speaks for itself, even as the overall critical reception indicates there's still room for improvement.
