Fear Street Director Wants to Create the MCU of Horror – Netflix’s trilogy is ambitious enough as it is, telling three different stories set in 1994, 1978 and 1666 that all combine to form one overarching narrative about the horrors to have plagued the small town of Shadyside for centuries.

Janiak said she had plans for an interconnected universe of films, much like the #MarvelCinematicUniverse, even before she was hired for the trilogy. With the films already working as a small series of interconnected stories, Janiak called them a new hybrid thing. – #Netflix has not yet announced any plans for the future of Fear Street. However, if it pulls in good streaming numbers, Netflix would likely want the series to continue with a Fear Street Part Four or even several more films that were connected like the current trilogy, which is what Janiak would love to see. https://www.instagram.com/p/CRfwRlED4Fb/?utm_medium=tumblr

Kingpin 2 In Development From Original Directors – Peter and Bobby Farrelly are set to produce a sequel to their 1996 bowling comedy Kingpin, and the project is currently in active development at Village Roadshow Pictures, Collider has exclusively learned. – A sequel to the 1996 Peter and Bob Farrelly comedy, #Kingpin, is currently in development at Village Roadshow Pictures. The original film starred Woody Harrelson, Bill Murray and Randy Quaid and arrived at a time when the Farrellys were coming off the monumental success of Dumb & Dumber. – #FarrellyBrothers films have arguably lacked the magic that was offered in their earlier projects. Their mixture of goofy subject matter and crass laughs was unique in its ability to genuinely charm audiences, and although there are more unmemorable Farrelly films than memorable ones, the films that did make an impact at the box office are largely considered comedic classics. #kingpin https://www.instagram.com/p/CP7XvrXnf-w/?utm_medium=tumblr
