Tony Todd will appear in Candyman relaunch
The Candyman horror franchise will get a relaunch. Ever since news of the reboot hit, fans have been worried about Tony Todd appearing in the new version as the horror has made the actor a horror star. As it became known recently, Todd will indeed appear in the new "Candyman", but what role he will receive is still unknown. The film will be produced by Jordan Peele (We, Get Out), and the main role will be played by Lakeith Stanfield.“I got a call from Jordan Peel out of the blue. We don't have a contract yet, but as he explained to me, the new film will have "moments worthy of ovation." He said so. Whether this is so, I do not know yet, but the original will attract attention again", - says Tony Todd. "Candyman" is based on Clive Barker's story "Forbidden". In the story, two young researchers are studying urban legends. Their attention is drawn to the story of Candyman. They say that if you say the name of this maniac five times in front of the mirror, he will appear from a parallel world and kill the victim with his hook sticking out instead of a brush ...  After its premiere in 1992, Candyman became a hit, receiving good box office and critical acclaim. Later, two sequels were released, Candyman 2: A Farewell to the Flesh and Candyman 3: Day of the Dead, but neither was as successful as the original. What awaits the audience in the reboot, the authors have not yet told. At the moment, we only know that the story will again unfold in Chicago, all in the same poor Negro district, which has now become ennobled. But the main character this time will be a man. The relaunch is scheduled for June 12, 2020. Source: MovieWeb The Topic of Article: Tony Todd will appear in Candyman relaunch. |
