Halloween Kills director David Gordon Green recently shed light on how the Bob Odenkirk cameo in the film came to fruition. Green, along with co-writer Danny McBride, revitalized the iconic slasher franchise with 2018's Halloween, which served as a direct sequel to the original 1978 film by John Carpenter. This led to the subsequent releases of Halloween Kills in 2021 and Halloween Ends in 2022.
Halloween Kills picks up immediately after the events of its predecessor, confirming Michael Myers' survival and his continued reign of terror. While the film received mixed reviews, there are still enjoyable elements, including Easter eggs and nods to the franchise's history.
