Here’s the synopsis for the film:Since the death of his pregnant wife in a Haitian earthquake 12 years ago, Victor Fielding (Leslie Odom, Jr.; One Night in Miami, Hamilton) has raised their daughter, Angela (Lidya Jewett, Good Girls) on his own. But when Angela and her friend Katherine (Olivia Marcum), disappear in the woods, only to return three days later with no memory of what happened to them, it unleashes a chain of events that will force Victor to confront the nadir of evil and, in his terror and desperation, seek out the only person alive who has witnessed anything like it before: Chris MacNeil.For the first time since the 1973 film, Ellen Burstyn reprises her iconic role as Chris MacNeil, ”an actress who has been forever altered by what happened to her daughter Regan five decades before.”The film also stars Ann Dowd (The Handmaid’s Tale, Hereditary) as Victor and Angela’s neighbor, and Jennifer Nettles (Harriet, The Righteous Gemstones) and Norbert Leo Butz (Fosse/Verdon, Bloodline) as the parents of Katherine, Angela’s friend.The press release adds: “When The Exorcist, based on the best-selling book by William Peter Blatty, was released, it changed the culture forever, obliterating box office records and earning 10 Academy Award® nominations, becoming the first horror film ever nominated for Best Picture.”David Gordon Green is directing from a screenplay he wrote with Peter Sattler (Camp X-Ray). The story comes from Scott Teems (Halloween Kills), Danny McBride (Halloween Trilogy) and Green, based on characters created by William Peter Blatty.
