It’s sort of incredible to think about how far The Conjuring universe has come in such a short time. There are currently seven released films, with at least three more in various stages of productionOpens in a new tab, all based on the world of the Warren family established in 2013’s The Conjuring. Ed and Lorraine Warren—played by Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga in the films—were a real-life couple, famous for their paranormal adventuresOpens in a new tab. Though their validity has been the subject of questioning for decades, their legacy remains in tact thanks to these films. And though the couple hasn’t appeared in every one of the movies in the franchise, they’re back for Annabelle Comes Home, the third film in the Annabelle spinoff series.
In this episode of Nerdist News Edition, our own Clarke Wolfe sat down with the cast of Annabelle Comes Home to chat about the famously creepy doll, the Warrens, and how this new film sets the stage for The Conjuring 3, due out in 2020.
Additionally, the cast joked about Patrick Wilson’s lack of singing in this film, which is disappointing given his memorable rendition of “I Can’t Help Falling in Love with You” in The Conjuring 2. “He only sings in The Conjuring movies,” Farmiga teased. If that’s not a reason to stay tuned for The Conjuring 3, we don’t know what is!
