But will it really happen?
The Candyman legend never dies. Within the last five years, there’s been talks of a remake, yet according to Tony Todd, there are renewed talks of a fourth entry.
The actor is in Northern California now starring in Deon Taylor’s Dark Christmas. “This is the third time I’ve worked with Deon and I definitely think he’s an up and coming talent in the horror industry,” Todd told Dread Central. “We’ve been talking recently about some of our ideas, including wanting to revive the Candyman franchise and keep the legend moving forward.”
Todd goes on about the sequel saying, “Deon and I have some tricks up our sleeves too for Candyman, so just sit tight for that because you never know what will happen.”
True, the question now is where the rights to Candyman rest and whether those rights holders are willing to press on with a fourth film or just reboot the franchise altogether.
All speculation right now.
Taylor also directed Chain Letter and Nite Tales
