The Blair Witch Project (Reboot)

The Blair Witch Project reboot is gearing up for a fall 2026 shoot under director Dylan Clark, marking the first time the original creative team has been directly involved in a new entry since the 1999 phenomenon. Joshua Leonard and Michael C. Williams, stars of the first film, will executive produce alongside original directors Eduardo Sánchez and Daniel Myrick and producer Gregg Hale.
