Continuing to be one of the most self-nourishing film franchises to date, the world culminating Universal Pictures and Blumhouse’s The Purge is still standing eight years since the first film. This time, it’s Days Of Grace helmer Everardo Gout’s turn to sound the alarms and unleash the anarchy with a new story that goes beyond the limits with The Forever Purge, this summer in theaters in time for the July 4 weekend.
This summer, all the rules are broken as a sect of lawless marauders decides that the annual Purge does not stop at daybreak and instead should never end in The Forever Purge.
Blumhouse
Blumhouse’s infamous terror franchise hurtles into innovative new territory as members of an underground movement, no longer satisfied with one annual night of anarchy and murder, decide to overtake America through an unending campaign of mayhem and massacre. No one is safe.
Adela (Ana de la Reguera, Cowboys & Aliens) and her husband Juan (Tenoch Huerta, Days of Grace) live in Texas, where Juan is working as a ranch hand for the wealthy Tucker family. Juan impresses the Tucker patriarch, Caleb (Will Patton, Halloween), but that fuels the jealous anger of Caleb’s son, Dylan (Josh Lucas, Ford v Ferrari).
On the morning after The Purge, a masked gang of killers attacks the Tucker family—including Dylan’s wife (Cassidy Freeman, HBO’s The Righteous Gemstones), and his sister (Leven Rambin, The Hunger Games), forcing both families to band together and fight back as the country spirals into chaos and the United States begins to disintegrate around them.
Gout directs from a screenplay by franchise creator James DeMonaco. The Universal Pictures release hails from Perfect World Pictures and is a Platinum Dunes/Blumhouse/Man in a Tree production.
