Forty-plus years after playing the character of Lindsey Wallace in John Carpenter’s Halloween (watch it HERE), Kyle Richards has returned to the role for the sequel Halloween Kills (read our review HERE), which is now in theatres and also available to watch on the Peacock streaming service. It was nice to see Richards as Lindsey again after all that time – and we may not have seen the last of her. Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Halloween 2018 (watch that at THIS LINK) and Halloween Kills director David Gordon Green hinted that Kyle Richards may be playing Lindsey Wallace again in the trilogy capper Halloween Ends, which is set to begin filming in January.
Green said that working with Richards
was fun. In the ’78 film, you see that moment with her and Tommy upstairs in the hallway after their confrontation with Michel Myers, and Laurie is pleading with them to get out of the house and go get help, and she’s their protector. So it was cool to be able to take that character full circle to a sequence we have on the playground where she has a very similar, protective moment with kids on a playground. It was fun to be able to see her role reversal, her maturity as a character. I’m not sure we’ve seen the last of Kyle Richards in our franchise.”

We know for sure that Jamie Lee Curtis will be returning as franchise heroine Laurie Strode in Halloween Ends, which she thinks will be her last Halloween movie. She told Total Film Magazine,
I would say, given what I know about the next movie, I think it will be the last time that I will play (Laurie). And I’m not saying something like, ‘Oh, because I die!’ It’s nothing to do with that. I’m talking about emotionally what they have constructed. I think it will be a spectacular way to end this trilogy.”
We don’t have any details on the story Green and co-writers Danny McBride, Paul Brad Logan, and Chris Bernier have crafted for Halloween Ends, but Curtis said a couple years ago that the film will deal with
the sort of cultural phenomenon of violence. That’s what the third movie ultimately is, a very powerful examination of violence. It comes at it from a slightly different way.”
Green did recently confirm that Ends takes place four years after the events of Kills.
Halloween Ends is scheduled to reach theatres on October 14, 2022. Malek Akkad is producing the film with Jason Blum and Bill Block. Green, McBride, and Curtis serve as executive producers alongside John Carpenter and Couper Samuelson.
