"The Exorcist: Believer" director David Gordon Green was hoping that the original director, William Friedkin, would live to see the film. Friedkin did not want involvement in the production but was willing to give his thoughts after watching it. The new installment is a sequel to the original "Exorcist" and is considered a better sequel than Green's "Halloween" films. However, the reviews for "Exorcist: Believer" are not great. Despite this, the film is now playing in theaters. Green talks about rebooting the horror classic for today's moviegoers and explains how he pulled off the surprise ending. Some horror fans are getting the movie wrong, and there are discussions about the future of the trilogy. The film's box office performance fell short of expectations, but it is still on track for release. However, changes may be made due to the critical and commercial reaction. Most critics agree that "Exorcist: Believer" is unnecessary and lacks the spirit of the original.
