Blumhouse Productions had plans for a meta sequel to the 2018 horror movie 'Truth or Dare', which would have seen actors Tyler Posey and Lucy Hale playing themselves in a scenario inspired by 'Wes Craven's New Nightmare'. The project, titled 'Truth or Dare IRL', was ultimately scrapped at the last minute. Director Jeff Wadlow expressed disappointment, noting the film would have been fun to make and likely well-received by audiences. Tyler Posey revealed he was the one who came up with the idea for the meta sequel and had the support of Jason Blum, Blumhouse's CEO, but the project never advanced to production. This cancellation adds to a series of recent developments in the horror genre, including the announcement that 'The Purge 6' script is completed and the release of a new series adaptation of 'Friday the 13th' by A24, expected to release this year.
Dan Harmon says he's "almost done" with the "Community" movie script: "I’ve been having kind of a nervous breakdown the last couple of months just by working on it, and that’s a good thing because I’m having all kinds of flashbacks to 2009." https://t.co/6Y7NCpEbbq
