After the filming of Samaritan with Sylvester Stallone has been completed, director Julius Avery’s next project has already become known. A well-known monster hunter gets a reboot.
Julius Avery became known through the horror film “Operation: Overlord”. The Nazi zombie film is about a group of US soldiers who have to make an emergency landing on German territory one evening before the Allies land in Normandy and discover a secret Nazi laboratory in which these dead soldiers are resurrected by immortal super soldiers for the third To make rich. But the attempts end in the creation of a horde of cruel zombies.
The film was well received by both the audience and critics and the newcomer Julius Avery is considered a rising star. He is currently directing the film “Samaritan” with Sylvester Stallone in the lead role and his next project has already been announced. A horror reboot of the film “Van Hellsing” is being produced by Julius Avery together with horror luminary James Wan.
James Wan, who has already produced classics such as “Saw”, “Annabelle” or “Conjuring”, is also said to be responsible for the “Van Hellsing” reboot. After “Van Hellsing” flopped in 2004 with Hugh Jackman in the lead role, they now want to start a darker attempt. The new film is supposed to be a horror thriller. So fans can hope for a creepier and more brutal monster hunter than the one from 2004. When the film will be released and what it will be about, we will probably only find out in the future when the project progresses.
With the film, Universal no longer relies on the franchise plans as originally planned, in which the various monsters of the studio should meet in an MCU-like universe. After the “The Mummy” remake with Tom Cruise flopped, they seem to be producing individual films again. “The Invisible Man” showed earlier this year that individual horror films are doing better for Universal.
