Evil Deadfranchise starBruce Campbellreveals that a fifth film might initiate production this year , although without Ash Williams as the lead . Campbell has become a B - movie icon in the X since first fighting for natural selection against Deadites , and he ’s played mint of memorable roles , but it ’s severe to suppose anything ever eclipsing Ash in the mind of fans . lamentably , when Starz prefer to invalidate theAsh vs Evil DeadTV serial in 2018 , Campbell quickly made it publicly known that he wasretiring the lineament .

In October 2019,Evil DeadcreatorSam Raimiconfirmed that a new celluloid in the franchise was in development , although it would n’t star Campbell as Ash . Raimi later on revealed that he ’d very much wish to make anotherEvil Deadmovie with Campbell as the star , but that the actor planned to stay true to his retreat from the franchise . Campbell will , however , serve as a producer on the project , which make sentience , as few knowEvil Deadas well as the valet de chambre behind Ash ’s chain saw .

It ’s been a number of week since any further updates on the nextEvil Deadmovie have emerged , but during a late appearance at Fan Expo Vancouver ( via1428 Elm ) , Campbell made it clear that things are right on racecourse . Here ’s what he had to say .

Evil Dead 5 Could Start This Year, Says Bruce Campbell

We ’re producing more malign bushed motion-picture show . Maybe one subsequently this year . Sam Raimi ’s hand beak the next guy to make another creepy Evil utter film . It just wo n’t have Ash . There are more fib to tell .

While it was already bang that Sam Raimi hadhand - picked a director for the fifthEvil Deadouting , and that Ash would n’t seem , the fact that output could begin this year is brand new information . Raimi had never provided any kind of timetable for when the newEvil Deadwould get roll , but it seems unconvincing Bruce Campbell would mention a potential 2020 output commencement if one was n’t being considered , and being a manufacturer certainly put him in   a position to know such things . As with 2013’sEvil Dead , directed by Fede Alvarez , not recasting the Ash use is definitely for the best , even if Campbell is well and truly done with the case . No one could ever supersede him as Ash , and it would be gooselike to even assay .

Evil Deadhas never been a big budget occasion , so it seems plausible that if cinematography begin later in 2020 , the final film would be quick for release sometime in 2021 . Releasing in 2021 would see a newEvil Deadpotentially place in competition for horror supremacy withHalloween close , and would label the first clip the two enfranchisement have released a new entry in the same year since Raimi ’s originalEvil Deadpremiered in 1981 .
