Universal Moves 'Candyman' to 2021 | Hollywood Reporter

 

[Marvolo]

I would have watched it on VOD. Even in 2021 this isnt going to be worth the risk of a theatrical viewing.

 

[antsman41]

Yeah... we should get this as a halloween treat this year.

I mean I don't blame them for delaying it, but I actually think it could done well if they would have stuck with that October release date. Maybe its just me, but I think it makes way more sense to try and put mid budget movies like this in theaters right now than something like Tenet or any of the other big blockbusters like WW84 or Dune , because there's a lot less money to lose, but probably more to gain from a delay though.

 

[DarkKnight88]

This could be big in theatres. There’s a reason they’re delaying instead of dumping it. If you’ve seen how Get Out plays with a crowd, this has the potential to as well.

This has the potential to be a huge sleeper hit at the box office so I don't blame them for delaying it.

 

[Neil McCauley]

The original was solid, I’ll see this as an horror flick so I think they did the right thing with delaying him.

It'll be great to see a really good horror film on the big screen. You can tell the studio is really behind that for this one.

[Shinobi Shaw]

I still can’t wait for this.

 

[Pennywise]

Now I’m feeling tempted to stand in front of a mirror, and say the name.

 

[CadeSkywalker28]

From the reactions I read, it looks like it's going to be a very mediocre movie.

 

[DarkKnight88]

Too bad. This franchise deserves another great film after the first. That first film is so strange but so perfect, that it'd be kind of hard to hit that precise tone again.

Candyman Star Tony Todd Says New Movie Is Continuation of Original Film

 

[Sawyer]

Candyman sneaking around in the background of that first still is great. As is Colman Domingo reading Barker.

This sh** is gonna be amazing.

 

[Still Wynning]

Like how they’re leaning into the urban legend aspect and having Candyman’s origin be altered from being told differently by different people and changing over time. That’s such a cool angle.

Anyone else notice the painting of the original Candyman design from the book cover of “The Forbidden”, the story on which the original Candyman film is based, at 0:56?

This looks so f****** good and atmospheric! The original is one of the scariest movies I saw as a kid and this looks to be honoring that legacy while also building something new.
