Director of The Conjuring: Last Rites expresses it's the appropriate moment to bid farewell to Ed and Lorraine Warren, stating, "We aspire to avoid this franchise from being over-exploited and worn out."
In the chilling world of the Conjuring universe, the final outing for beloved characters Ed and Lorraine Warren is upon us. The Conjuring: Last Rites, set to release on September 5, marks the end of the original Conjuring phase, according to New Line Cinema's president Richard Brener.
Michael Chaves, who has previously directed The Nun II, The Curse of La Llorona, and The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, is at the helm for this chilling conclusion. Chaves, a fan of the franchise himself, grew up on Nightmare on Elm Street and understands the significance of the Conjuring series to many.
Chaves aims to make The Conjuring: Last Rites feel special for fans who have grown up with the franchise. He believes that the film should end on a high point to avoid the series becoming stale. The Conjuring universe, launched in 2013, has spanned 9 movies, including multiple The Nun and Anabelle spin-offs.
The Conjuring: Last Rites is the fourth Conjuring film and explores the Warrens' final case, where they take on a demonic presence lurking in the Smurl family home. Chaves felt pressure in taking on the Warrens' final installment as director, as the franchise was created by James Wan.
