Yesterday, we shared a couple pictures that reveal Jamie Lee Curtis has reported to the set of Halloween Ends in Georgia, reprising the role of Halloween franchise heroine Laurie Strode for what may be the last time. Now original Michael Myers performer Nick Castle has confirmed that he will be joining Curtis on the set. Castle will be making a cameo in Halloween Ends, just like he did in 2018’s Halloween (watch it HERE) and a scene that was deleted from Halloween Kills (watch that one HERE).
Castle also confirmed that James Jude Courtney will be playing Michael Myers again, as expected.
David Gordon Green, who directed the previous two Halloween films, is directing Halloween Ends from a screenplay he wrote with Danny McBride, Paul Brad Logan, and Chris Bernier. He has said that the events of this sequel take place four years after the ending of Halloween Kills, and added,
There’s not a lot of games in it, there’s not a lot of wittiness and retro joy. It’s kind of a coming-of-age film, and it’s a very different tone. And that’s what excited me about it, is to have the three chapters that I’ve been involved in be very different from each other.”
Curtis, Castle, and Courtney are joined in the cast by Andi Matichak as Laurie’s granddaughter Allyson, Kyle Richards as Lindsey Wallace, and Michael O’Leary as Doctor Mathis.
A casting call gave descriptions of more characters:
Among them are a self-assured nurse named Erin who is between the ages of 28 and 35 and is very judgmental, as well as a Proprietor between the ages of 40 and 80 years old. Other roles being cast for the film are Scott, Donna, Mr. Meade and Mrs. Meade.
Per the breakdowns, Scott is a male between the ages of 52 and 57; he is stern, strong and a straight shooter who is sometimes checked out. While Donna is a 55 to 65 year old female who is Timothy’s overbearing and critical mother. Mr. Meade and Mrs. Meade are the parents to a young boy named Noah who is a nice kid with the ability to switch to a jerk on a dime. Both Mr. and Mrs. Meade are described as being between the ages of 40 and 50 years old. They’re a middle-class suburban family, with the father being described as “tough as nails” and the mother said to showcase “emotional depth.”
Other roles being cast are Brandon, Young Johnny and Veronica. Brandon is a male between the ages of 40 and 60. He is a large man in weight and sense of authority who finds his son to be a disappointment. Young Johnny is a male between the ages of 6 and 10 who has long blonde hair with a slight gap between his teeth; the character is described as having dark eyes being a bit small. Veronica is the last of the trio. She’s between the ages of 40 and 45 and is a strong-willed protective wife who is broken “by the reminders of tragedy.”
Halloween Ends is scheduled to reach theatres on October 14, 2022.
