The ‘Halloween’ Series Should Be a ‘Creative Reboot’: Here’s What Happens Next with Michael Myers

These are exciting times for ‘Halloween’ fans: with the brutal ‘Halloween II – The Horror Returns’ there is one of the toughest chapters since last week – and for the author of this article also one of the best films about Michael Myers – so far The horror saga, which currently consists of 13 films, is finally completely uncut in 4K for home theater, after the indexing of the uncut version was recently removed…

…and a lot is also happening regarding the future of the simply indestructible series after it was announced last October that Miramax had secured the rights for future film adaptations. And already has concrete plans for this:

One is currently being worked on “Halloween” series worked, which could start a new cinematic universe in the fields of television and film – provided, of course, that the format is successful. But what exactly do you plan to do with the Haddonfield horror now that director David Gordon Green has caused a stir with his trilogy consisting of ‘Halloween’, ‘Halloween Kills’ and ‘Halloween Ends’?

“Halloween”: Carpenter classic as the basis for the series

producer Marc Helwig now confirmed that “Halloween” is a “high priority” for Miramax and they are working hard to get the project off the ground. “We’ve had a lot of exciting conversations with some really talented people over the past few months and I think we’ll know what we’re going to do in a very short time,” said producer Helwig, who expects the creative team to reunite for the series soon.

While he finds ‘Halloween Ends’ a fitting conclusion from which he does not want to deviate, Helwig and his team want to go back to the origins of the world-famous slasher saga: “The basis for this is the original film, John Carpenter’s. The characters in this film and maybe some characters that weren’t as central to the newer films.” The goal is not to tell a story based on the latest franchise extensions, but rather to realize a “creative new start”.

What this means for the future of “Halloween” can only be guessed at this time. Over the course of its history, which now spans more than 45 years, the cult horror franchise has had many a “creative new start” – from the then-maligned Michael Myers-less “Halloween III,” which has nevertheless become a crowd favorite over the years, from Rob Zombies’ 2007 remake to Green’s triptych (2018-2022).
