This week has been a big one for The Exorcist, with Universal launching a series of three posters for new sequel The Exorcist: Believer just yesterday. And that was the appetizer for the main course, with the official trailer for The Exorcist: Believer now playing in theaters.
The trailer for The Exorcist: Believer, like many recent Blumhouse movies, is a THEATER EXCLUSIVE for now, and you’ll find it attached to Oppenheimer on the big screen this weekend.
We expect the trailer will be finding its way online soon, but for now the only way you’ll be able to get a first look sneak peek at the movie is, well, by going to the movies this weekend.

And stay tuned… it likely won’t be long before the trailer is officially unleashed online…
David Gordon Green directed the brand new sequel to The Exorcist for Universal, Blumhouse and Morgan Creek that will pave the way for a new trilogy. The first film in the trilogy will be released theatrically on October 13, 2023, with Leslie Odom Jr. starring.
The first plot details we were provided with last year tease, “Odom Jr. will play the father of a possessed child. Desperate for help, he tracks down Ellen Burstyn’s character.”
Ann Dowd (Hereditary), Lidya Jewett (Netflix’s Nightbooks), Raphael Sbarge (“Gaslit”), Jennifer Nettles (The Righteous Gemstones), and Olivia Marcum are also on board.
Peter Sattler (Broken Diamonds) and Gordon Green wrote the script for Believer, which features a story by Green, Scott Teems (Halloween Kills) and Danny McBride (Halloween).
The Exorcist franchise hasn’t been on the big screen since the 2005 release of Dominion: Prequel to The Exorcist, an alternate version of the previous year’s Exorcist: The Beginning. Those films came in the wake of 1977’s The Exorcist II: The Heretic and 1990’s The Exorcist III.
More recently, “The Exorcist” became a short-lived television series at Fox, which was surprisingly excellent and cleverly took place in the same world as the original classic.
