1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Direct from Hollywood with Ryan Seacrest.

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,600
Speaker 2: Fans of horror have a treat lined up for Halloween season,

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 2: with The Exorcist Believer hit in theaters, rebooting arguably the

4
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,800
Speaker 2: most iconic horror film of all time. It's been directed

5
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 2: by David Gordon Green, who just helmed all three of

6
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 2: the wildly successful reboots of another classic franchise, the Halloween Trilogy.

7
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:22,439
Speaker 2: But don't expect the Exorcist to be handled in the

8
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 2: same fashion David Tell's Empire. The Halloween movies are in

9
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 2: the slasher genre. It's a place to play and maybe

10
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 2: have some camp, be fun. But The Exorcist was more

11
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 2: researched and a bit academic. The narrative and relationships were

12
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,880
Speaker 2: more dramatic. It's a different approach. We're talking about horror,

13
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 2: But my main ambition was to preserve the dramatic integrity

14
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 2: and not to lean into what's evolved within the genre

15
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,560
Speaker 2: as a result of the original. But it's impossible. You

16
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 2: must acknowledge so many movies are copycats of the Exorcist.

17
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 2: The Exorcist Believer arrives appropriately on Friday, October thirteen.

18
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: That's direct from Hollywood,
