But, well, never say never… Up next from the Evil Dead franchise is a brand new movie titled Evil Dead Rise, currently being directed by Lee Cronin (The Hole in the Ground) with a release planned for HBO Max.

Bruce Campbell’s Ash Williams truly became a horror icon in Evil Dead 2, a more comedic take on the Deadites that affixed a chainsaw to Ash’s hand. The rest, as they say, is history.
