Evil Dead 4: Bruce Campbell Reveals New Director and That Ash Won't Be in It

The long-awaited next Evil Dead movie is actually happening, according to Ash Williams himself, actor Bruce Campbell. However, the original trilogy's director, Sam Raimi, will not direct the film, instead passing the baton -- er, chainsaw? -- to a new director. And, according to Campbell, Ash himself will also be sitting out this installment.
In a chat with Empire, Campbell revealed the next Evil Dead movie is being written and directed by Lee Cronin. Raimi and Campbell appear to be involved in a producing capacity.

"It’s called Evil Dead Now. Sam handpicked Lee – he did a cool movie called The Hole In The Ground. We’re going to get that sucker out as soon as practical,” Campbell said.

Campbell said Evil Dead Now, like the 2013 reboot Evil Dead, will focus on a female protagonist rather than Ash, with the actor-producer promising a "more dynamic" entry.

“From this point forward, they kind of have to stand on their own,” Campbell said of the films.

“We just want to keep the series current. And the mantra, really, is that our heroes and heroines are just regular people. That’s what we’re going to continue.”

Campbell last played the role in the now-canceled Starz series Ash vs Evil Dead. He and Raimi collaborated on Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2, and Army of Darkness.

Rumor: Does ‘Evil Dead Rise’ Take Place in a Skyscraper?!

After years and years and years of begging for an Evil Dead 4, Sam Raimi not only gifted horror fans with the brutal 2013 remake/sidequel, but also the “Ash vs Evil Dead” series brought Bruce Campbell back as the mouthy ass-kicking Ashley J. Williams. While Campbell has officially retired Ash, the Necronomicon is still out there with deadites looking for more souls to swallow.

Campbell, who is also a producer on all things Evil Dead, let slip that the next installment will be directed by The Hole in the Ground’s Lee Cronin and will be removed from the cabin in the woods setting.

The title, which initially revealed to be Evil Dead Now, was quickly amended to Evil Dead Rise.

But what does it mean?

Bloody Disgusting contributor Jimmy Champane, who also has his own YouTube channel, got the scoop on the new settings, telling his audience that his source revealed to him that the next Evil Dead will take place in a building or skyrise/skyscraper/high-rise, hence the title. While it may seem like an obvious conjecture, he was told this information when the film was titled Evil Dead Now, which only stoked the flames even more. If it matters, we know and trust Jimmy, but let’s still file this one under rumor until confirmed.

We’ve seen quite a few horror movies hit the high-rise, from Poltergeist III to [REC]2, Joe Lynch’s Mayhem and Ciarán Foy’s Citadel, and even the sequel to Halloween was nearly a high-rise apartment-set slasher.

With that said, what do you all think? Are you happy to see the Evil Dead franchise move to new locations or would you prefer it remains in a cabin in the woods setting? Tell us below.
