Evil Dead Rise Picture Editing Is Complete Says Director
The Deadites inch closer to returning in Evil Dead Rise now that the film is pictured locked. With a co-op Evil Dead video game already on the way, New Line Cinema and HBO Max will expand the universe with the fifth feature film project in the hit horror franchise in 2022. Bruce Campbell, the iconic star of the film and TV series playing Ash Williams, announced in 2020 that original director Sam Raimi handpicked Lee Cronin (The Hole in the Ground) to write and direct Evil Dead Rise. The film appears to be set in the same cinematic universe as the other Evil Dead titles but will not feature Ash, and it is yet unknown how it will tie into them—if at all.
While there is no official release date for the film, <a href=«https://twitter.com/curleecronin/status/1502002726913380352?ref_src=» https: screenrant.com target="_blank" rel=«noopener noreferrer»>Lee Cronin
posted an update on Twitter announcing a picture lock for Evil Dead Rise. The term essentially means that the editing crew has finalized all visual components of the film's post-production process, but that sound mixer Myk Farmer's grisly audio is next. "Onto music composition and sound design we go…," Cronin states. He also mentions that picture editing took a whopping six months to complete.
