Halloween Ends Will Attempt to Bring 'Closure' to the Michael Myers and Laurie Strode Story

Halloween Ends director David Gordon Green is attempting to bring closure to the saga of Michael Myers and Laurie Strode. In an interview with Total Film, Green touched on a number of aspects of his next two Halloween movies, Halloween Kills and Halloween Ends. His 2018 film, Halloween, centered around the decades-long fight between famed killer Michael Myers and Laurie Strode. It was meant to serve as the beginning of the end, and Green has indicated that the end is where his trilogy is heading. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=18-things-we-learned-on-the-set-of-blumhouses-halloween&captions=true"] "It's a very different movie than Kills, and both Halloweens," Green said in reference to Ends. "The script feels very fun. For me, it was essential to say, 'here's a conclusive episode to my trilogy.' I'm trying to bring closure to my 'Laurie Strode versus Michael Myers' storytelling." Ends is the third film in the trilogy that began with 2018's Halloween. Before getting to Ends though, Kills will release. Kills was set to release this October but has since been delayed almost a full year to Oct. 15, 2021. When asked how Kills would differentiate itself from the Halloween movies that have come before it, Green said the sequel will be much angrier. "If the first film was somewhat retelling the origin of Myers and getting us up to speed with where Laurie has been all those years, then part two is about the outrage of Haddonfield," Green said. "'Mob Rules' was our working title for the film. It's about a community that is united by outrage, and divided in how to deal with evil."
