Before the release of Final Destination 5 in 2011, series actor Tony Todd said that if the film were to be successful, two sequels would be filmed back-to-back.[2] In January 2019, New Line Cinema announced a new installment was in development. Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan wrote the initial script, described as a "re-imagining" of the franchise.[3][4] In March 2020, series producer Craig Perry said the film would be set "in the world of first responders" and feature EMTs, firefighters, and police officers. When asked if it was in the same canon as the previous installments, he said, "Reboot is probably too strong of a word ... it makes it sound like they're going to change everything, but it's definitely a Final Destination movie".[5] That October, series creator Jeffrey Reddick confirmed a sixth film had been in the works prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.[6]

In October 2021, Lori Evans Taylor was reported to be the new writer for the film.[7] In January 2022, HBO Max announced it would distribute the film, Jon Watts joined the project as a producer, and Taylor was confirmed to have written the screenplay alongside Guy Busick.[8] That July, Reddick revealed the film would differ from the franchise's formula.[9] In September that year, Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein were selected from over two hundred candidates to direct the film. During a Zoom meeting with executives and producers from New Line to make their pitch, Lipovsky and Stein staged a freak accident like the ones in the films at the end of the call; insiders said the joke, which featured a combination of prerecorded footage and visual effects and demonstrated the filmmakers' passion for the film, got them hired.[10] In September 2023, Tony Todd officially signed on to reprise his role as William Bludworth. The film will explore the character's backstory.[11] In March 2024, it was announced that the film would be released in theaters by Warner Bros. Pictures.[12] Most of the cast was also revealed.[1]

Principal photography was scheduled to take place in Vancouver, British Columbia, from July to October 2023,[13] but in mid-July, production was delayed due to the SAG-AFTRA strike.[14] With Christian Sebaldt as cinematographer, filming instead took place in Vancouver from March 4 to May 13, 2024.[12][15]

Release

[edit]

Final Destination: Bloodlines is scheduled to be released in the United States by Warner Bros. Pictures on May 16, 2025.[12][16] The film will be released in IMAX theaters in addition to standard format.[17]
