The Future of ‘Halloween’ – Miramax Currently Shopping the Rights for Film



Halloween Ends wasn’t the end for the Halloween franchise, as Miramax is taking bids from studios and streamers



Last Halloween, the third and final installment of the Halloween trilogy directed by David Gordon Green was released. Halloween Ends promised to be the ultimate showdown between Laurie Strode and Michael Myers, and it not only concluded the sequel trilogy but also marked the end of Universal and Blumhouse's involvement with the popular horror franchise.


Blumhouse Productions produced the trilogy, which was released in theaters by Universal Pictures as part of a Miramax deal. However, it seems that Miramax is now actively seeking to sell the rights to the Halloween franchise. According to Bloody Disgusting, there is currently a heated bidding war among several interested parties in Hollywood, all vying for the chance to resurrect Michael Myers.


Miramax is reportedly open to both film and television projects, and studios and streamers alike are making offers. The final decision rests with Miramax, and they will choose the project they find most appealing following the success of Gordon Green's trilogy.


The Halloween franchise has never been adapted for television, so it's possible that it could be the next step for Michael Myers. Alternatively, another feature film reboot could be in the works. Details are yet to be confirmed, but more information is expected to be revealed soon.


In the meantime, we would love to hear from you. What would you like to see next from the Halloween franchise? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

Only one thing is certain. Michael Myers WILL be back…
