‘The Exorcist: Martyrs’ Trailer: Scarlett Johansson Tracks A Demonic Killer In Mike Flanagan’s Take On Horror Classic

As The Exorcist makes its way back to theaters, a first look at Mike Flanagan‘s new chilling take on the horror classic has been unveiled.

On Friday, Blumhouse released the first trailer for The Exorcist: Martyrs, which premieres March 12, 2027, revealing Scarlett Johansson’s Detective Judy Miller and the demonic homicide case at the center.

In The Exorcist: Martyrs, Detective Julie Miller (Johansson) ends the killing spree of satanic Father Sunday (John Leguizamo), only for a new serial killer to drag her back into the darkness 13 years later when her name is written in the blood of a murdered altar boy on the walls of a church crypt.

Teaming up with former prison chaplain Father William (Chiwetel Ejiofor) and rookie Detective Gina Restrepo (Sasha Calle), Detective Miller discovers an ancient evil that has linked killers like H.H. Holmes, the Night Stalker and the Zodiac for generations.

Written and directed by Flanagan, and based on characters created by The Exorcist author William Peter Blatty, the cast also includes Diane Lane, Jacobi Jupe, Scoot McNairy, Gil Bellows and Laurence Fishburne.

Producers include David Robinson and Jason Blum, with executive producers Alexandra Magistro and Ryan Turek.
