Producer Keith Levine has offered an update on the sequel to Hulu’s 2022 “Hellraiser” reboot, saying there has been some early movement.
Odessa A’zion starred in the first film as a young woman struggling with addiction who comes into possession of an ancient puzzle box, unaware that its purpose is to summon the sadistic extradimensional beings known as the Cenobites.
Co-starring Adam Faison, Goran Visnjic and Jamie Clayton, the David Bruckner-directed film reinvented the franchise’s mythology, offering a whole new take on the lore from the original films, and became the most critically praised entry in the series outside of the original 1987 film.

Speaking with ComicBook.com, he says:
“We are trying to do a follow-up and there have been conversations. Ican’t exactly say where we’re at in those conversations, but [David] Bruckner is involved in those conversations and we spent a lot of time and energy, I think relaunching that world.A lot of brainpower going into crafting the Cenobite design, figuring out how we’re going to pull them off, and we learned so much. And I think moving forward, we love that all that knowledge is sort of banked and that time has been spent.So we think that moving forward and going into another movie is just going to be even crazier and even more awesome. So yeah, that’s something we’re definitely hard at work on, and hope we will have more news soon.”
Ben Collins and Luke Piotrowski penned the script for the first film which launched October 2022.
