A new behind-the-scenes image from 2018's Halloween shows James Jude Courtney with Jamie Lee Curtis' stunt double. After years of lackluster sequels and reboots, Michael Myers returned to the big screen in 2018 with David Gordon Green's Halloween. The reboot acted as a direct sequel to the original 1978 film and even brought back John Carpenter as executive producer and composer.
While a new actor put on the Boogeyman's mask, Curtis returned as Laurie Strode 16 years after her brief appearance in the critically panned Halloween: Resurrections in 2002. After 40 years, Laurie is still struggling with PTSD but has prepared herself to kill Michael should he ever escape from Smith's Grove Psychiatric Hospital. Obviously, that's exactly what happens, and Michael and Laurie have an intense battle at her house at the movie's climax.
Retconning all past Halloween sequels seemed to be a wise choice for the newest reboot since Green's movie received praise from both fans and critics. The film did an excellent job of adapting Michael Myers for a modern audience and featuring brutal kills while still honoring what Carpenter created 40 years prior. However, had the film not brought back Curtis in a main role, it's very possible Halloween might not have done as well.
While Halloween Kills may not have done Laurie Strode justice, hopefully Halloween Ends will end the trilogy on a high note. Courtney's post indicates he is currently on set with Curtis' stunt double, which means they could be filming certain stunts now that Curtis has wrapped filming. Halloween Ends is expected to have a final showdown between Michael and Laurie, especially after Green revealed there would be a four-year time jump.
