Read almost any review of Osgood Perkins’ Nicolas Cage led 2024 occult horror Longlegs<\/em> and you’ll find the word ‘singular’ \u2014 or a variant of it \u2014 being used to describe the prolific genre filmmaker’s chilling serial killer tale. But perhaps we were a little hasty in our choice of words. Perhaps Longlegs<\/em> wasn’t quite so singular after all… or at least it won’t be for much longer. Per THR<\/em>‘s reporting, writer-director Perkins is re-teaming with star Nicolas Cage on a new Longlegs<\/em> movie.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Shifting home base from indie outfit Neon \u2014 where his Keeper<\/em>, The Monkey<\/em>, and the original Longlegs<\/em> were made \u2014 to Paramount Pictures after the first film’s distributor baulked at the cost and scale of his latest venture, Osgood Perkins isn’t simply making Longlegs 2<\/em> here (or Longerlegs<\/em>, as somebody surely would’ve called it.) As THR<\/em>‘s sources state, this secretive new film will instead be something else that’s “set in the Longlegs<\/em> universe.” In all fairness though, satanism or no satanism, *SPOILER ALERT*<\/strong> Cage’s creepy killer Longlegs \u2014 aka Dale Cobble \u2014 was<\/em> very much dead by the end of the first film, with no sign of infernal intervention reviving the face-mashed murderer anytime soon. Given where that first movie leaves Maika Monroe’s FBI Agent Lee Harker, too, the likelihood of her appearing in any future LCU (that’s Longlegs Cinematic Universe) movies is fairly slim we reckon.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Made on a budget of $10 million, Longlegs<\/em> was something of a word-of-mouth phenomenon, with occultism heavy marketing, in-theatre stunts, enigmatic trailers, and Cage’s unhinged performance driving the movie to a hefty $128 million box office haul by the end of its run. We don’t know what Longlegs<\/em>‘ follow-up will entail, who else will be in it, or how Perkins and Cage are planning to bring Dale Cobble back at this point, but we are already seated and very afraid. Hail Satan!<\/p>\n
