The sixth film in the Insidious horror franchise, currently untitled, was originally scheduled for release on August 29, 2025 but was pushed back a year to August 21, 2026. Some details about the film have finally emerged and shed some light on possible plot details.
The new Insidious installment is being produced by Jason Blum, James Wan, Leigh Whannell, Ryan Turek, Oren Peli, and Brian Kavanaugh-Jones.
The movie is set to begin filming September 15, 2025, in Melbourne, Australia. The first four movies in the franchise were filmed in California, and the fifth primarily in New Jersey. With a new filming location and no past actors confirmed to return, this could mean an entirely brand new story is taking place.
Three supporting roles are currently being cast with details below:
LESTER
The character is portrayed as he/him, 60s+, BIPOC. Small and hunched, he is a strange and frightening man who torments his neighbor… SUPPORTING. SEEKING UNIQUE, FRIGHTENING APPEARANCES.
PATSY
The character is portrayed as she/her, 60s+, BIPOC. Short and thin, she is a garish and frightening woman who torments her neighbor… SUPPORTING. SEEKING UNIQUE, FRIGHTENING APPEARANCES.
EDNA
The character is portrayed as she/her, 60s+, BIPOC. Tall and thin, she is an eerie and frightening woman who torments her neighbor…SUPPORTING. SEEKING UNIQUE, FRIGHTENING APPEARANCES.
With no other information about the untitled film, it is possible that Insidious is headed in a new direction. In an interview in 2023, Jason Blum claimed that the franchise would have a "very long rest" and that there were no plans for a sixth film. The untitled sixth film was announced only a year later in May 2024.
This story is still developing.
