New 'Paranormal Activity' movie in the works

A new Paranormal Activity movie is in the works!

Paramount and Blumhouse-Atomic Monster, along with other production houses, are developing a new entry in the hit found-footage franchise, according to an exclusive report by The Hollywood Reporter.

Conjuring director James Wan will be joining the franchise as producer following his production company Atomic Monster's merger with Blumhouse.

"I’ve been a huge admirer of Paranormal Activity since the brilliant first movie, with its creeping slow burn and subtle ability to make the unseen terrifying. I’m looking forward to expanding on its legacy and helping shape the next evolution of this scary found-footage franchise,” Wan told the outlet.

Paranormal Activity producer Jason Blum will produce for Blumhouse-Atomic Monster together with the original film's director Oren Peli for Solana Films. Other executive producers include Steven Schneider, Michael Clear, and Judson Scott, with Alayna Glasthal as executive overseer.

Other details of the upcoming film are yet to be revealed.

Marking the biggest found footage phenomenon since The Blair Witch Project, Paranormal Activity is a hit FF movie franchise since the first film was released in 2007 on a micro-budget. Its seven movies revolved around households haunted by demonic entities, the latest being Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin, released in 2021.
