At long last Sony Pictures is heading back into The Further!
The studio announced today they’ll be releasing the long-awaited Insidious 5 in theaters everywhere on July 7, 2023.
After starring in the first two movies as Josh Lambert, we learned in 2020 that Patrick Wilson is returning to the franchise as the *director* of the upcoming fifth installment!
Insidious: Chapter 5 “will pick up with the Lamberts ten years after the last movie, as Dalton begins college.” Yes, a direct sequel to Insidious and Insidious: Chapter 2.
Patrick Wilson will also star alongside the returning Ty Simpkins as Dalton Lambert.
This will be Wilson’s debut as a director. Scott Teems (Halloween Kills) wrote the script based on a story by franchise co-creator Leigh Whannell (The Invisible Man).
“I’m honored and thrilled to be at the helm of the next Insidious installment, which will provide an amazing chance to unpack everything the Lamberts went through a decade ago, as well as deal with the consequences of their choices,” Wilson said in a statement back in 2020. “Directing the movie is both professionally and personally a full circle moment for me, and I am extremely grateful to be entrusted in continuing to tell this frightening and haunting story. Into the further we go…”
The first two Insidious movies were written by Leigh Whannell and directed by James Wan, centered on the Lambert family and their terrifying struggles deep within The Further. The last film, Insidious: The Last Key, was released back in 2018.
