New Line Cinema has announced the cast for its next Final Destination movie, Final Destination: Bloodlines. That cast is led by Stargirl actress Brec Bassinger, and she is joined by Teo Briones (Chucky) and Kaitlyn Santa Juana (Dear Evan Hansen).
Other members of the cast include Richard Harmon (The 100), Anna Lore (Gotham Knights), Owen Patrick Joyner (Julie and the Phantoms), Max Lloyd-Jones (The Book of Boba Fett), Rya Kihlstedt (Obi Wan Kenobi) and Tinpo Lee (The Manor).
The movie is being directed by Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein (Freaks) and Spider-Man: No Way Home filmmaker Jon Watts is producing.
Franchise creator Jeffrey Reddick previously offered up an interesting tease of the film last year, saying:
“This film dives into the film in such a unique way that it attacks it from a different angle so you don’t feel like, ‘Oh, there’s an amazing setup and then there’s gonna be one wrinkle that can potentially save you all that you have to kind of make a moral choice about or do to solve it.’ There’s an expansion of the universe that – I’m being so careful.
“It kind of unearths a whole deep layer to the story that kind of, yes, makes it really, really interesting.”
He added that they are going to change things up a lot as the story will not involve the formula that the franchise beat to death over the first five films.
“I will say that it’s not just going to be another kind of ‘we set up a group of people, they cheat death, and then just death gets them.’ And there’s one wrinkle that we kind of added to every movie to kind of like change it up a little bit: this one is… a true Final Destination movie, but it doesn’t follow that kind of formula that we’ve kind of established.”
The new movie will be released in 2025, timed to the 25th anniversary of the original.
