DROP: When Technology Becomes Terrifying

Blum describes DROP as a wild ride! It's deeply unsettling, it completely leverages how easy technological exploits are nowadays and the trailer uses Sabrina Carpenter's music, making this very unique selection, one which is rarely ever seen;  Blum is very clearly impressed with his new product.   He explains that its intensity leaves the viewers speechless – this should demonstrate just why the selection and inclusion of the music from that particular singer is totally genius!

The Lost Bus: A True Story of Heroism

This movie; created in collaboration with Paul Greengrass and Jamie Lee Curtis is about this incredibly inspiring true story and heroic rescue efforts made during California's deadly wildfires.   This is extremely important as it conveys human bravery and is being made in conjunction with those involved, to highlight this powerful message.

Wolf Man: Old-School Horror Reimagined

A reimagining of The Wolfman, produced and directed by Leigh Whannell (of Invisible Man fame).  Blum wants that classic monster movie feel – and he uses these precise terms when emphasizing how important and necessary it was for it to truly convey the necessary atmosphere: “super grounded, super scary. It’s gory, it’s bloody, and it’s intense.” A true gory fiesta of fright!

Blum says he only could reveal the poster to avoid serious retribution from the team itself; this showcases that certain parties involved might've wished this project's key aspects to remain hidden. Thus, only that poster should really matter.

M3gan 2.0: Back for More Robotic Mayhem

Filming's wrapped on M3gan 2.0, with Gerard Johnstone directing again; featuring those insanely amazing performances in previous installments! Blum seems really impressed.   We can expect Allison Williams returning; as revealed during that NYCC event. He even teases possibly dressing as M3gan again, if he gets permission!

The Black Phone 2: An Unlikely Sequel With Huge Potential

Blum didn’t intend on a sequel! It was made because those previously involved in that first version of that storyline, those core parties– Scott Derrickson and C. Robert Cargill– believed another story is definitely needed, that an extremely exciting storyline needs that follow up and would make the sequel totally worthwhile, for those hoping this sequel makes for some impressive storytelling. It is an unexpected addition yet makes for the highly desired follow up to its now very iconic predecessor. Blum explains just why he agreed to make this project and he was particularly excited and enthralled when hearing about it. These elements suggest there's considerable creativity and thought put into making the sequels just as successful as its very highly acclaimed original counterpart.

This might only suggest this new universe will expand even more – those elements further demonstrate the creative potential implied within a widely successful IP.

Mike Flanagan’s The Exorcist: Reimagining Terror for a New Generation

Blum teases Mike Flanagan's The Exorcist (2026). The big challenge? Recreating the sheer terror of the original— a scary movie even by today's standards – this isn’t going to be easy, folks. It needs to be scarier; yet completely different to be successful, and to justify this effort; and that requires immense levels of creativity that are completely unique!
