Jeepers Creepers Reborn: Release Date, Cast, and More.

It appeared like the Jeepers Creepers trilogy had come to an end after a third film that was panned by critics, a box office disaster, and the center of a scandal stemming from writer and director Victor Salva’s 1980s conviction for child molestation (via Decider). However, it was simply dormant, much like the creature that inspired it.

Variety reports that Jeepers Creepers: Reborn is in the early stages of development with a new creative team at the lead. Timo Vuorensola, who is best known for the dark sci-fi comedy Iron Sky and its sequel (which is one of the post-apocalyptic hidden treasures you must watch on Netflix), will direct the film, which will be written and directed by Sean Michael Argo, who is a prolific B-movie writer and director, will write the screenplay.

Jeepers Creepers Reborn

Every generation has its horror symbol — the 1970s had Leatherface, the 1980s had Freddy Krueger, and the 1990s had Ghostface, who had kids screaming in the streets.

However, for Generation Z, the early 00s were plagued by Jeepers Creepers’ main nemesis, the man-eating demon, The Creeper, an ancient, unknown demon who takes organs from humans to replace its own old or broken ones, which was featured in the film Jeepers Creepers.
According to legend, the Creeper hunts for 23 days every 23rd spring, scaring its victims and using the scent of fear to identify what it needs to eat. It is said to hunt for 23 days every 23rd spring.

And now, more than two decades after the first horrifying audiences around the world, he is ready to eat once more as a critically acclaimed fourth film in the franchise prepares to hit theatres this summer.

The original film, which was released in 2001, was a worldwide smash, grossing about $59 million at the box office worldwide. Jeepers Creepers is now a fully-fledged horror antagonist, and following the success of the first film, the franchise expanded with two additional installments.

While the third installment of the trilogy was largely lambasted by critics, early reviews of ‘Jeepers Creepers Reborn’ appear to indicate that the franchise has returned with a vengeance, with the picture receiving an amazing 8/10 rating on the respected film website IMDb.

Listed below is all we know about Jeepers Creepers: Reborn, as well as when it will be available in the United Kingdom.

Up to This Point, What Do We Know About Jeepers Creepers: Reborn?

‘Reborn’ is the fourth installment in the series, and it is expected to be the first installment in a planned trilogy that will take place after the first three installments.

There is a fictitious festival called Horror Hound Festival that takes place in Louisiana, and the action of the film takes place there.

Unfortunately for those who are attending the festival, The Creeper will also be present as he searches for his feed, which will be frustrating for them.

Fans of the Creeper franchise will be “even more thrilled (and chilled) to return to the world of the Creeper,” according to Screen Media’s Creative Executive Conor McAdams, who says the new film is a “much scarier vision” from director Timo Vuorensola. The Creeper franchise has been distributed by Screen Media since its inception in 1996.

When Are Jeepers Creepers: Reborn Going to Be Published in the United Kingdom?

On Google, the release date for Jeepers Creepers: Reborn is incorrectly stated as October 28th, 2021 — as you might have guessed, this is not correct.

It has been verified by a trailer uploaded on the film’s official Twitter account, @JeepersReborn, that the film will be released in 2022, however, no official release date has been announced at this time. Timo Vuorensola (Iron Sky) directs the film, which was written by Sean Michael Argo and stars Timo Vuorensola (Iconoclast).

The Cast of Jeepers Creepers: Reborn Has Not Yet Been Announced.

However, even though Jeepers Creepers: Reborn claims to have completed filming and is expected to be released this year, no official cast list for the film has been provided. This makes predicting who will appear in the next edition of the series extremely tough.

The actors in the previous three films were largely ordinary, with Justin Long serving as perhaps the most well-known star associated with the franchise to date. The fourth film’s cast will likely be made up primarily of unknowns in a similar fashion.

One of the biggest unknowns regarding the Jeepers Creepers: Reborn cast is whether Jonathan Breck, who is practically unrecognizable without his monster makeup, will reprise his role as the Creeper.

Breck played the Creeper in the original Jeepers Creepers film. The Creeper is the most unforgettable character from the original trilogy, even more so than any of the people that appear in the film adaptation. While Breck’s harrowing physical performance has been a defining feature of the franchise, he is also the sole character to appear in all three films.

When rumors of a fourth episode began to circulate in the summer of 2020, horror fansite iHorror reached out to Breck’s agency to inquire about the possibility of him appearing in the upcoming film. It was his agent who explained to them that “really, there isn’t much to say… We have not interacted with anyone at this point. The fact that nothing is being done does not mean that nothing is being done.”

Fresh Information

New information regarding the Jeepers Creepers mythos may be revealed in Jeepers Creepers: Reborn, which is set to be released later this year.

Variety’s coverage of Jeepers Creepers: Reborn provided us with a wealth of information regarding the film’s plot. As stated in the film’s synopsis, the action will take place once again in the deep south, this time in the state of Louisiana, for the second time. The Horror Hound Festival will also screen the film, which “attracts hundreds of geeks, freaks, and die-hard horror lovers from throughout the globe,” according to the festival’s official website. According to the Creeper, this appears to be the ideal place for his post-hibernation feast.

Laine, the main character of this current picture, is invited to the festival by her horror-obsessed boyfriend, Chase, who is a fan of the genre. She begins to experience horrific visions that anticipate the arrival of the Creeper while she is there. The use of premonitions in the series is not a new concept.

During the filming of Jeepers Creepers 2, the character Minxie (Nicki Aycox) had prophetic visions of the Creeper’s prior victims in an attempt to warn her of the creature’s impending arrival. Considering that this aspect of the series’ mythos hasn’t been fully addressed in any of the other films, it will be fascinating to watch how Laine’s visions are depicted in the upcoming feature.

According to sources, these visions would feature aspects of the Creeper’s past as well as the town of Alexandria in Louisiana. Will Jeepers Creepers: Reborn takes fans of the franchise any further into the backstory of the monster that has become so well-known and recognizable? We’ll have to wait until the fall of 2021 to find out the answer.
