Krampus director Michael Dougherty says he has an idea for a sequel, despite a follow-up to the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Christmas horror never having been greenlit.
In a new inte🐻rview with , the filmmaker got to chatting about Trick 'r Treat 2, the next installment in his Halloween-set anthology-style flick, before✅ dropping the bombshell that he's been cooking up more Krampus tales, too.
"It doesn't necessarily center around a family as much as it might be about a group of strangers who are trapped somewhere," he told the publication, which is certainly intriguing given t♛he plot to his ꧒2015 original.
Starring Adam Scott and Toni Collette, the first film – which puts a nightmarish twist on the titular Austro-Bavarian folklore figure – centers on Max (Emjay Anthony), who inadvertently unleashes a murderous beast when his festive spirit gets snuffed out by his family's constant arguing. Over the course of the movie𒈔, Max and his believer grandmother (Krista Stadler) fight to bring the fractured Engels together again, and send the horned demon back to Hell.
Maybe one day, Dougherty will be abl♎e to bring his Krampus 2 to fruition, but 𝄹for now, he and his frequent collaborators Zach Shields and Todd Casey are perfecting their Trick 'r Treat 2 screenplay.
"I will say this, because we said it last year at the Beyond Fest screening, the sequel is in active development with Legendary," Dougherty teased in the same sit-down. "I'll go so far as to say tha🎀t we have several drafts of a script. I brought back the same storyboard artist I mentioned before, Simeon Wilkins, so we have a stack of storyboards and a good fat stack of concept art done by Breehn Burns as well. So it's inching along." We're already looking forward to reuniting with sack-wearing Sam again...
