Ask any Previous, they are going to inform you: It’s loopy that it’s been 50 years because the world first met The Exorcist. 50 years of that creepy picture of Max von Sydow standing exterior that glowing window in Washington D.C.? Unbelievable! Nevertheless it’s true.
Much more unbelievable: 50 years later, unique Exorcist star Ellen Burstyn is reprising her position as Chris MacNeil in a brand new sequel referred to as The Exorcist: Believer. Chris was the mom of Regan, the little woman who received possessed by unholy evil within the unique Exorcist movie. Regan herself is seemingly a no-show on this new film — though actress Linda Blair was apparently a “technical advisor” to director David Gordon Inexperienced — however Chris is recruited by a younger father (Leslie Odom Jr.) whose daughter appears to have been possessed by the identical demon that took management of Regan all these many years in the past.
