Newly surfaced set photos reveal Scarlett Johansson filming scenes for an upcoming Exorcist movie, offering fans an early look at the horror project’s tone and cast. The behind-the-scenes images showcase Johansson alongside Chiwetel Ejiofor and Rahul Kohli, capturing moments such as walking down an outdoor stairwell, leaning against a car, and engaging in conversation with Ejiofor, with Sasha Calle visible in the background.
Johansson stars as a mother confronting a terrifying supernatural force, with Jacobi Jupe cast as her son, forming the emotional core of the story. The film’s ensemble also includes John Leguizamo, Laurence Fishburne, Diane Lane, and familiar collaborators like Carla Gugino and Kate Siegel, who have worked with director Jacobi Flanagan on previous projects.
Flanagan is taking on multiple roles as writer, director, and producer, with backing from Blumhouse Productions, Atomic Monster, and Morgan Creek Entertainment. Universal Pictures will handle worldwide distribution, and the film is scheduled to premiere in theaters on March 12, 2027.
Unlike the recent The Exorcist: Believer, which acted as a direct sequel or remake, this new entry is set within the same universe but tells an original story. This approach allows the creators more creative freedom while maintaining ties to the franchise’s legacy. The previous film, directed by David Gordon Green, received a lukewarm reception, with many viewers feeling it failed to capture the impact of the original classic. This has raised high expectations for the new installment.
Initial reactions to the set photos are cautiously optimistic. Fans are intrigued but eager to see how the film will develop, hoping it will deliver a more compelling and satisfying horror experience.
Throughout her career, Scarlett Johansson has demonstrated remarkable versatility, earning acclaim in films like Lost in Translation and Girl with a Pearl Earring, showcasing her emotional depth. She later became a global superstar as Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, particularly after Avengers: Endgame.
