Sam Raimi was so impressed by Lee Cronin’s feature directorial debut, the 2019 horror film The Hole in the Ground, that he not only hired Cronin to contribute to his short-lived anthology series 50 States of Fright, he also gave the filmmaker the chance to write and direct the latest entry in the Evil Dead franchise, Evil Dead Rise. In addition to Raimi’s production company, that movie came to us from Warner Bros. Pictures and their subsidiary New Line Cinema. Obviously the studio executives liked what Cronin did with Evil Dead Rise, because The Hollywood Reporter has now broken the news that Cronin is teaming up with John Keville and Macdara Kelleher of Wild Atlantic Pictures to form a genre-focused production company called Doppelgängers, which has secured a first-look deal with New Line Cinema!
Evil Dead Rise made $147 million at the worldwide box office for Warner Bros. / New Line.

Fresh off the box office success of Evil Dead Rise last year, Lee Cronin has formed a new production outfit titled Doppelgängers, and he’s also inked a deal with New Line Cinema.
The Hollywood Reporter broke the news this afternoon.
According to the site, Doppelgängers will be focused on “genre fare,” and Cronin has formed the outfit alongside John Keville and Macdara Kelleher of Wild Atlantic Pictures.
The idea behind the Doppelgängers banner is to develop genre film and television projects for Lee Cronin to write, direct and produce alongside Keville and Kelleher.
THR’s report continues, “The company is starting hot out of the gate, signing a first-look deal with New Line Cinema for its feature film projects.”

Before making his mark on the Evil Dead franchise with new movie Evil Dead Rise, director Lee Cronin cut his teeth on a mixture of commercials and short films. That early career work eventually led to Cronin’s feature debut The Hole in the Ground in 2019, an A24-released horror movie that soon led to Cronin landing the gig directing Evil Dead Rise.
Cronin directed a handful of short films between 2004 and his feature debut, but it’s 2013’s Ghost Train that garnered the most recognition for the Irish filmmaker. In addition to being in Official Competition in over 50 film festivals worldwide, the horror short notably won a handful of awards, including the Méliès D’Argent for Best European Fantastic Short Film at the Molins de Rei Horror Film Festival in 2014. Ghost Train also won the Audience Award for Best Short Film at the Ithaca International Fantastic Film Festival during the same year.

There’s just no telling when Ash will run into a deadite. At a screening of the upcoming horror film Evil Dead Rise at the SXSW film festival, during a Q&a session with the cast and crew, an audience member became possessed, not by the Book of the Dead but by the Book of Anger, as he shouted out to the filmmakers on stage, “This movie f**king sucks!” Naturally, the audience felt how disrespectful this was and proceeded to boo the heckler as he made his way out.
According to Deadline, the heckler threw his popcorn in a fit of rage and stormed out after he had been approached by staff members following his little tantrum. The cast and crew laughed it off in disbelief, but the enraged audience member would flip them off before exiting and attempted to yell more obscenities as he was drowned out by the audience’s jeers.

Attending The Overlook Film Festival in New Orleans last year was one of my favorite horror experiences of the decade thus far, and Daily Dead is proud to return as one of the sponsors for this year's festival, taking place March 30th–April 2nd!

From the world premiere screening of Renfield to the closing night showing of Evil Dead Rise, there are 26 features and 24 short films to look forward to, as well as the return of the Halloween costume party, the weekend-long immersive game, and Final Exam Trivia sponsored by Daily Dead!

Evil Dead Rise, the 2023 entry in the Evil Dead franchise, just released a bloody and terrifying two-minute trailer that’s everything you’d want or expect from an Evil Dead project. A chainsaw’s involved, of course, but that seems tame compared to what else the trailer teases is in store for horror fans.
Vikings‘ Alyssa Sutherland stars along with Lily Sullivan (I Met a Girl), Morgan Davies (Storm Boy), Gabrielle Echols (Reminiscence), and newcomer Nell Fisher.
Lee Cronin (The Hole in the Ground) wrote and directed the grisly horror film. Cronin’s behind-the-scenes team includes director of photography Dave Garbett, production designer Nick Bassett, editor Bryan Shaw, and costume designer Sarah Voon. Stephen McKeon wrote the score.
Evil Dead Rise has Evil Dead creator Sam Raimi and “Ash” himself, Bruce Campbell, involved as executive producers. Ash vs Evil Dead‘s Rob Tapert produces. Additional executive producers include John Keville,...

Exclusive: Mia Challis (Clickbait) has joined the cast of writer/director Lee Cronin’s Evil Dead Rise.
She’ll appear opposite previously announced cast members Lily Sullivan and Alyssa Sutherland.
Evil Dead Rise is an HBO Max sequel to 2013’s Evil Dead, which served as a soft reboot of the supernatural horror franchise of the same name. In the fifth Evil Dead film, a road-weary Beth pays an overdue visit to her older sister Ellie, who is raising three kids on her own in a cramped L.A apartment. The sisters’ reunion is cut short by the discovery of a mysterious book deep in the bowels of Ellie’s building, giving rise to flesh-possessing demons, and thrusting Beth into a primal battle for survival as she is faced with the most nightmarish version of motherhood imaginable.

“Mothering Sunday’s” Odessa Young has been tapped for award-winning director Thordur Palsson’s upcoming psychological horror “The Damned.”
The film will see Young star as Eva, a 19th-century widow tasked with making an impossible choice when, during an especially cruel winter, a ship sinks off the coast of her impoverished Icelandic fishing village. Any attempt to rescue survivors risks further depleting the starving villagers’ supplies.
As the villagers struggle with their guilt, Eva begins to experience unsettling visions and suspects they are being punished for their choice. Shooting will begin on location in Iceland in January 2022.
Protagonist Pictures will represent sales worldwide, co-repping U.S. rights with CAA Media Finance.
Palsson (“The Valhalla Murders”) wrote the story while Jamie Hannigan wrote the screenplay (supported by Screen Ireland).
Young is currently appearing in Cannes title “Mothering Sunday” alongside Olivia Colman (“The Father”), Colin Firth (“The King’s Speech”) and Josh O’Connor...

New Line has made it official that a sequel to the The Evil Dead is in the works for WarnerMedia streaming service HBO Max. The film, Evil Dead Rise, will be directed and written by Irish filmmaker Lee Cronin and star Alyssa Sutherland and Lily Sullivan.
The original 1981 pic’s filmmaking team is back for Evil Dead Rise: Sam Raimi, who directed, wrote and executive produced Evil Dead, will serve as EP here; Robert Tapert, who served as EP and producer on the first, will produce; and Bruce Campbell, who starred as Ashley J. Williams and executive produced the original will EP on the second go-round. He will not star in the next chapter here.
Moving the action out of the woods and into the city, Evil Dead Rise tells a twisted tale of two estranged sisters — played by Sutherland (TV’s The Mist and Vikings) and Sullivan — whose reunion is cut short by the rise of flesh-possessing demons, thrusting them into a primal battle for survival as they face the most nightmarish version of family imaginable
Cronin was chosen by Raimi, Tapert and Campbell to spearhead the sequel given his feature directorial debut on the 2019 horror title The Hole in the Ground.
I understand Evil Dead Rises is being made strictly for HBO Max. There is a chance the movie will get a theatrical release in those offshore territories where the streaming service isn’t available. The 1981 original was a cult movie, only grossing $3 million worldwide theatrically, but it found a bigger audience in the home entertainment arena. The 1987 sequel grossed close to $6M domestic. The threequel, 1992’s Army of Darkness, made $11.5M domestic. Out of all of these, Fede Álvarez’s 2013 reboot for TriStar was a success with a $17M production and a $97.5M global box office gross.
Romel Adam, John Keville and Macdara Kelleher will also serve as EPs on Evil Dead Rises.
Said Raimi in a statement, “I’m thrilled to bring Evil Dead back to its original home at New Line 40 years after the release of the first film. The company’s history as pioneers of horror speaks for itself. I’m equally excited to be working with Lee Cronin, whose gifts as a storyteller make him the ideal filmmaker to continue the enduring legacy of the franchise.”
“At its core, Evil Dead is about ordinary people overcoming extraordinarily terrifying situations,” added Campbell, “I can’t wait for Alyssa and Lily to fill the blood-soaked shoes of those who have come before them and carry on that tradition.”
Said Cronin, “The Evil Dead movies filled my brain with terror and awe when I first saw them at nine years old. I am excited and humbled to be resurrecting the most iconic of evil forces for both the fans and a whole new generation.”
Richard Brener, President and Chief Creative Officer, New Line Cinema added, “New Line has a proud history of involvement in some of the most influential and enduring horror films of all time, and the original The Evil Dead was a landmark moment for the Studio. The movie transformed the genre and with each new installment, Sam, Rob and Bruce have continued to raise the bar. It’s exciting to have them back in the fold for Evil Dead Rise after all these years, especially as they bring with them an immense talent in director Lee Cronin. His inventive spirit and his reverence for the franchise make him the perfect director to unleash Evil Dead once again.”
Evil Dead Rise will be filmed on location in New Zealand, with post-production work completed in Ireland. With New Line releasing domestically, the film will be distributed by Canal Plus in the UK and Metropolitan in France.

Lee Cronin’s forthcoming Sundance premiere “The Hole in The Ground” has sold North American distribution rights to A24 and DirecTV.
The horror-thriller will open at the annual Utah gathering in January, and marks the feature directing debut of Cronin on the heels of his buzzy 2016 short “Ghost Train.”
