Halloween: The Game is set to hit consoles this September, so naturally the Halloween brand and all involved are feverishly promoting that.

However, rumblings are afoot that Michael Myers will soon be returning to the big screen…

Although it’s been well documented that Miramax has been developing a Halloween television series, reliable sources are telling us this has been shelved.

The reason given was that the company couldn’t drum up interest from a network or streamer.

Instead, those same sources are telling us that Miramax have instead shifted their focus back to feature films.

After establishing a reliable working relationship with Paramount Pictures via 2026’s Scary Movie, we’re hearing that it’s likely Miramax will partner with them for a new Halloween instalment.

So, when can we expect Halloween to return to theatres?

Well, we’re hearing that a 2028 release date is being eyed, coinciding with the Halloween series’ fiftieth anniversary.

At this stage, we have no idea the creative forces involved, but with the leaking of this info, some updates are expected soon.

Is it too soon for Halloween to return? Or will Michael be welcomed back to the big screen?

Hopefully we’ll find out soon!

We’ll be keeping a close eye on all things Halloween related and bring you any further updates as soon as we have them. Stay tuned.
