nope..he is done with horror.

Nah ah breh..he's directing Conjuring 2

EXCLUSIVE: James Wan has closed a big two-pronged deal with New Line Cinema. He will return to direct The Conjuring 2, with shooting to begin next summer. In addition, the hit-making Australian who had a major hand in launching the Saw and Insidious franchises and The Conjuring and most recently Annabelle, has made a first-look producing deal with the Warner Bros-based film label. The directing deal follows New Line taking The Conjuring sequel off its October 23, 2015 slot and moving it to 2016, which gives Wan time to promote the film he just finished, Fast & Furious 7. Universal releases that film April 3, 2015 after moving it from summer 2014 following the tragic death of star Paul Walker.

He was a hands-on producer on Annabelle — even sketching the scary title doll after an original attempt to secure Raggedy Ann was understandably rebuffed — and that $6.5 million budget film has so far grossed $166 million worldwide and should vastly better that mark by the time it is done scaring up business through Halloween.
“It was during the editing of Fast & Furious 7 that my brain started sparking ideas for The Conjuring sequel,” Wan said. “Taking a break from horror has allowed me to be creatively rejuvenated. I’m excited to tell the story of the next case-file of Ed & Lorraine Warren and expand on this world we’ve created.”

The overall deal is for producing, but Emmerich said the studio sees him as an emerging major filmmaker and they hope he will grow in that capacity on the Warner Bros lot. “New Line has always been a big believer in great filmmakers emerging from the horror genre, and he has the potential to grow like Frank Darabont did, from writing A Nightmare On Elm Street 3 to writing and directing The Shawshank Redemption,” Emmerich told me. “James will make an important movie for New Line and Warner Bros or DC, and that is definitely part of the plan, and a reason for bringing him into the family. He’s the only overall director with a deal here, because we see him as a class of one.”

he wanted to focus on action cinema from i heard last year..he was done with horror.

Check the post below yours breh.

I don't know him but I can speak as a creative type..a lot of times when you say you're done with something it's because you've got nothing left to say and sometimes you get an itch and you get a spark and now all of a sudden, you've got a lot more to say so you change your mind. I ain't mad at him. He said Fast 7 is the movie he's most proud of in his filmography and according to the article, Universal has an option on him to direct more of those so we'll see. He asked for permission to go do Conjuring 2 and they gave it to him. Sounds like a win

that's good man, so we get to feast on another solid horror from a talented contemporary horror auteur.

Yeah and from reading the whole article, he's trying to tell more stories in sci-fi, horror, suspense, whatever...so we'll get at least one more horror flick from him, possibly more but we will get a lot more that have him behind the scenes as a producer and developer, similar to Del Toro. Truth be told, Fast 7 is the movie I'm most excited for next year and a lot of that has to do with him

Insidious 3 trailer dropped



Hmmm. Its not a bad a trailer but it does give off a weird direct to dvd vibe at the same time.

Im excited to see what Leigh whannel can do behind the camera.

But i cant lie insidious 2 was terrible. Easily wans worst film. I enjoyed dead silence more.

I really loved the first one.
