Get ready for a chilling conclusion as The Conjuring Universe wraps up its epic tale. Find out what fans can expect from The Conjuring: Last Rites and whether James Wan's monster mashup idea will ever come to fruition.
The Conjuring: Last Rites features a more personal approach, focusing on the emotional bond between Lorraine and Ed Warren at its center. The team briefly considered assembling all monsters from the franchise into a single film, but decided against it due to audience feedback. Audience response to The Nun led the team to explore that character further. The final installment promises an emotionally satisfying conclusion to the franchise. Creator James Wan has hinted at a potential future movie idea that could bring together all Conjuring Universe monsters in a grand finale.
The Conjuring Universe, a sprawling horror franchise that has captivated audiences for over two decades, is nearing its conclusion with the release of The Conjuring: Last Rites. While fans have been eagerly anticipating the final installment in the series, they may not be aware of the epic development process behind it. In an exclusive interview with Entertainment Weekly, director Michael Chaves revealed that the team briefly considered a monumental twist: assembling all the monsters from the franchise's movies into a single, Avengers-style sendoff.
Chaves explained that during brainstorming sessions for The Conjuring: Last Rites, the team threw around ideas on how to make the film as big and epic as possible. "Even as we were developing it, we were throwing a bunch of ideas out: 'How shamelessly big can we make it?' 'How epic can we make it?' 'Is this the culmination of all the demons coming to face them?"" Chaves told EW.
One idea that was briefly considered was bringing together every Conjuring entity assembled over the years through a series of Doctor Strange portals. However, after some deliberation, the team decided to take a more personal approach, focusing on the emotional bond between Lorraine and Ed Warren at the center of the franchise.
The decision to eschew the monster mashup for a more intimate narrative was influenced by audience feedback from previous films in the series. As executive producer Peter Safran noted, "We thought the Crooked Man was basically going to be the Annabelle for Conjuring 2," but when audiences responded strongly to The Nun, the team decided to explore that character further.
The Conjuring: Last Rites will mark a fitting conclusion to the Warrens' story, and while it may not include the epic monster battle that fans have been craving, it promises to be an emotionally satisfying end to the franchise. As creator James Wan hinted in his interview with EW, however, he still has a movie idea brewing in his head, one that could potentially bring together all the monsters from the Conjuring Universe in a grand finale.
The question on everyone's mind is: will James Wan ever make that happen? Only time will tell, but for now, fans of The Conjuring Universe can look forward to a thrilling conclusion to the series.
