Blumhouse is officially joining forces with James Wan’s Atomic Monster once again for an upcoming horror movie. And this time, the companies are working on a book-to-screen adaptation of the graphic novel The Exorcism at 1600 Penn to the big screen. This film treatment is based on the IDW comic that turns the most famous address in America into a supernatural war zone. And. for so many reasons, I am beyond pumped.
Per Deadline, the project is being developed as a feature film adaptation of the indie comic book series created by writer Hannah Rose May, with striking artwork by Vanesa Del Rey and colors by Eisner Award-winning artist Jordie Bellaire. The story blends possession horror with political pressure, following the nation’s first female president, Kelly Doyle, as she navigates global chaos and personal responsibility. Adding to her stress is the very literal battle between good and evil inside the White House. This is the kind of upcoming Blumhouse movie announcement that gets my blood pumping, and let's break down why.
