After bringing in over $133 million at box offices, Blumhouse’s The Exorcist: Believer finally possesses a streaming date. It’s out on Peacock today!
Fifty years after the most terrifying horror film shocked the world, The Exorcist: Believer is a brand-new chapter in the saga, following the groundbreaking original 1973 film.
In the film, “Since his wife’s death, Victor (Leslie Odom Jr.) has raised his daughter Angela (Lidya Jewett) alone. After Angela and her friend (Olivia O’Neill) return from a three-day disappearance with missing memories, they begin displaying frightening behavior. Victor’s best hope is to find the only person who has seen anything like this before: Chris MacNeil (Ellen Burstyn), whose haunting experience with her daughter Regan may be the key to combating ultimate evil.
From Blumhouse and director David Gordon Green (Halloween, Prince Avalanche), the edge-of-your-seat film stars Leslie Odom Jr. (Hamilton, One Night in Miami), Ann Dowd (Hereditary, Compliance), Jennifer Nettles (Harriet), Norbert Leo Butz (Dan in Real Life, Give or Take), Lidya Jewett (Hidden Figures, Good Girls), and reprising her iconic role as Chris MacNeil, Ellen Burstyn (The Exorcist, Requiem for a Dream).
The Exorcist: Beliver is the first film of a new trilogy from David Gordon Green (Halloween). The next installment, The Exorcist: Deceiver, is set to open in theaters in April of 2025.
Peacock will possess The Exorcist: Believer on December 1, 2023. The sequel joins Peacock’s recently released horror films Five Nights at Freddy’s and The Black Phone, whose sequel has already been announced.
