The shooting of the upcoming fifth sequel of the Insidious franchise has been wrapped. The news was revealed through a congratulatory Twitter post from actress, and wife of the film’s director and star Patrick Wilson, Dagmara Dominczyk.

The first part of Insidious was released in 2010, directed by James Wan and written by Leigh Whannell. It stared Wilson, Rose Byrne, Ty Simpkins, and Andrew Astor as the Lambert family, who become plagued by evil spirits from an evil realm known as The Further when their son Dalton (Simpkins) slips into a coma. The Lamberts were the focus of the first two parts before the franchise switched to prequels and spin-offs for the third and fourth films. Although Wilson, Byrne, and Simpkins all made brief cameos in the fourth film, Insidious: The Last Key.

Now, all four actors are set to return to play the Lamberts for Insidious 5. The exact plot of the sequel is currently under wraps, but it is said to pick up with the Lamberts as they prepare to send Dalton (Simpkins) off to college. 

The first two films’ director, and iconic horror director, Wan is producing the film alongside Jason Blum and Whannell. Halloween Kills writer Scott Teems wrote the film’s script with story by Whannell.

Insidious 5 is scheduled to hit the theatres on July 7, 2023.
