After spending the better part of five years in the works, James Wan has confirmed The Crooked Man spinoff has been scrapped. This marks the first official time a TheConjuring project has been scrapped after being announced.
After spending the better part of five years in development, James Wan has confirmed that The Conjuring's Crooked Man spinoff movie has been scrapped. The entity was first introduced to the horror franchise in 2016's The Conjuring 2, being one of many the demon Valak used to torment both Ed and Lorraine Warren and the Hodgson family.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY James Wan recently took to his Instagram to share a variety of behind-the-scenes images from The Conjuring 2, giving new looks at Javier Botet's The Crooked Man character. While celebrating the actor's work on the film and in helping create the terrifying entity, Wan also confirmed that The Conjuring spinoff movie for the character has been scrapped, though teased the character could return in the future.
While any project's cancelation is generally a disappointment for the creatives involved, The Crooked Man being scrapped may ultimately prove to be in favor of The Conjuring Universe. Many fans of the horror franchise have lamented its larger focus on its various spinoffs over the mainline Conjuring movies, missing the presences of Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson's Lorraine and Ed Warren as they investigate a variety of supernatural cases.
Given the studio now has one less spinoff on their plate with The Crooked Man being scrapped, the creatives behind the horror franchise can better focus on the characters audiences have come to know and love. In addition to The Nun 2, it was recently confirmed that The Conjuring 4 was finally moving forward with David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick, who previously co-wrote the second and third movies, back to pen the script.
