Marvel star Scarlett Johansson joins Blumhouse's "all-new" Exorcist movie – and director Mike Flanagan "couldn't be happier"

Black Widow.

Scarlett Johansson has joined Mike Flanagan's upcoming Exorcist movie, marking her first foray into the horror genre in over a decade.

The Marvel actor's involvement was confirmed by a recent Deadline report, which also revealed that the upcoming flick will be telling an "all-new story" within the franchise's world – and won't be a sequel to The Exorcist: Believer. Blumhouse-Atomic Monster, Morgan Creek Entertainment and Flanagan's Red Room Pictures are producing, with the latter geared up to write and direct.
