Jeepers Creepers 5 would likely be explored through a different party or canceled altogether.He talked about not just what made the first film such a hit but also dropped a few hints about where the franchise might be headed in the future. This was reported to be the start of a new trilogy, but one can assume that the trilogy can’t be completed by the same parties tied up in a legal dispute with Myriad Pictures. An announcement is expected in the future, but the director had previously stated he knows as much as the fans do. Vuorensola failed to give an exact release date outside of claiming one had been decided on. Even if the film releases in 2022, the likelihood of Infinity Films or Screen Media touching this IP again after this seems unlikely. Jeepers Creepers: Reborn might do more harm than good to the series.

Listings regarding this case point to it carrying on till 2024, which is the year The Creeper is supposed to reawaken ironically. The film is partnered with Horror Hound, so maybe this is where the film will have its brief release before rushing to VOD. Claiming a trailer is being worked on, a release date has been determined, and the lawsuit won’t stop the release.

Despite this, Vuorensola has taken to Twitter to provide an update on the marketing. He is actively involved with this lawsuit against those responsible for Jeepers Creepers: Reborn.

Originally filed in March of 2021, this should add some importance to what Kirk D’Amico had stated a couple of years ago. It is also alleged that Myriad Pictures was left in the dark about the production and filming of Jeepers Creepers: Reborn. Myriad Pictures claims to have a contractual right of first negotiation and last refusal for worldwide distribution rights to Jeepers Creepers productions. After news broke of Jeepers Creepers: Reborn arriving in 2021, Myriad Pictures wasted little time filing a lawsuit against Infinity Films, another production company responsible for Jeepers Creepers 3. Kirk D’Amico’s statements from 2020 may have been truthful after all despite the existence of a fourth film.

Some fans have grown tired of the lack of marketing, but a recent lawsuit discovery has provided some answers on what the hold-up seems to be. Jarreau Benjamin is starring as The Creeper, which has some fans skeptical, but open to seeing his performance as the character. Chase and Laine will be played by Sydney Craven and Imran Adams, as they travel to Louisiana for a Horror Hound event and Laine seems to become a target for The Creeper. Multiple cast members were tracked down before any official announcements, including Dee Wallace, who is a legend in the horror genre. A short teaser arrived late last year after months of silence, but the marketing had been silent ever since. Iron Sky director, Timo Vuorensola, will be at the helm, as Screen Media claimed he was the perfect fit for a relaunch of The Creeper. It seemed that a return of the controversial horror character was impossible, but then news of Screen Media distributing the fourth entry arrived last February.

This latest entry is expected to pick up 23 years later in the Taggart barn, before shifting focus to our new protagonists, Chase and Laine.ĭevelopment of a fourth film was originally reported in 2020 and then shot down by Kirk D’Amico, head of Myriad Pictures, who has produced previous Jeepers Creepers entries. Salva had written the fourth film, but his story isn’t being used. One major change included recasting Jonathan Breck, who is known for his role as The Creeper.

This rebirth of the franchise is expected around the Halloween season, since Spring is about to end.Īiming to set itself apart from series creator, Victor Salva, Jeepers Creepers: Reborn has replaced many aspects of the series.
