The Conjuring Universe Is Headed To The New HBO Max For A TV Series
The horrors of the world of The Conjuring franchise are headed to the new HBO Max--simply called Max. The series is currently in development and was announced Wednesday during Warner Bros. Discovery's unveiling of the Max streaming platform.
According to Warner Bros., this new Conjuring series will continue the established story already in the feature films. Producer Peter Safran is attached to executive produce the series via his Safran Company banner. Director and creator of the series James Wan is in talks to also executive produce. Wan's Atomic Monster Productions is steering the project alongside Warner Bros. Television.
Safran is currently under a long-term deal with the studio and already oversees DC Comics properties alongside writer and director James Gunn. The two assumed their new roles back in November with the slate of projects revealed earlier in January. Safran has become a powerhouse within Warner Bros. having produced The Conjuring, but also the highest-grossing DC film of all time, Aquaman, coincidentally directed by Wan.
This announcement was just one of several projects unveiled during the presentation. This new Conjuring series will be joined by Matt Reeves' The Penguin, with another Game of Thrones spin-off down the road.
There are seven films within The Conjuring Universe, including the main Conjuring line, and the spin-offs with Annabelle and the sinister Nun. The next installment, The Nun 2, will be released on September 8, 2023.
