Production
[edit]Prior to the release of The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It in June 2021, director Michael Chaves commented in an interview with Empire on the possibility of future installments in The Conjuring series: "What [The Devil Made Me Do It] hopefully does is open up this new chapter for the Warrens. This has a very unique ending to The Conjuring films. I would be excited to see where it could go from here."[1] Actors Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga also expressed interest in returning. "Oh my God, I'd love to [continue]," stated Farmiga. "It's interesting, we have to up the fear in each one. Demonology is already so high-pitched and operatic."[2] In October 2022, The Hollywood Reporter revealed that a fourth Conjuring film was in development with David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick writing the screenplay, and James Wan and Peter Safran returning as producers.[3]
Prior to the release of The Nun II in September 2023, Chaves stated that work on the script was likely to continue, stating that the project was intended to be seen as a "finale" of the stories in the franchise that had come before.[4] By February 2024, Chaves was in negotiations to direct,[5] and in September, Ben Hardy and Mia Tomlinson were added to the cast.[6]
Filming was scheduled to take place in London between September 10 and October 10,[7] and had started by September 17, 2024. Filming wrapped on November 21, 2024[8][9]
