‘Evil Dead Rise’ Director Lee Cronin Reveals Four Possible Sequels

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD! DO NOT READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!

Evil Dead Rise is the fifth film in the Evil Dead franchise and tells a twisted tale of two estranged sisters (Lily Sullivan and Alyssa Sutherland), whose reunion is cut short by the rise of flesh-possessing demons.

The film was released in theaters on April 21, 2023 and brought in $23.5 million in its first weekend.

Director Lee Cronin has already been thinking about what’s next. “I didn’t want to bait it for sequels necessarily, even though the ending could be interpreted that way,” he said.

The first possibility is the origin of the Book of the Dead. “We have history in this film and that’s presented through the vinyl. So there’s there’s a story to be told there. It’s not by accident,” Lee said.

Another idea would be to follow the chainsaw at the end. “Somebody that survives picks up the chainsaw at the end and where they might go,” he said.

A third idea would be about the cleanup crew. “There’s also the aftermath in this building and who encounters that. And I’ve often thought, ‘What happens when the cleanup crew shows up?’” Lee said.

The last idea would be to return to the cabin in the woods. “Because of the opening and the closing, there’s that continuation of how this evil has a gate. That brings us back into that forest context, which excites me because I love that I broke the mold, but wouldn’t it be fun now if I went back to the cabin in the woods. It could be a cool journey,” he said.
