Actors Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga will reprise their roles as Ed and Lorraine Warren in The Conjuring spin-off, the untitled third Annabelle movie.

The third installment in the Annabelle series is also the sixth film in what has been called the Conjuring Universe, which has seen its five movies gross over $1.56 billion worldwide, reports Deadline.

The Nun, the most recent release, became the highest-grossing film in the franchise, surpassing $359 million worldwide this weekend.

That spinoff focused on the demon nun that came to life in The Conjuring 2 from a painting by Ed Warren and later attacked Lorraine Warren. Annabelle was introduced in The Conjuring as a demon doll in their artifacts room.

The story in the upcoming Annabelle movie centres on the doll awakening the room’s evil, which sets its sights on a new target - the Warrens’ 10-year-old daughter, Judy, to be portrayed by Mckenna Grace. Madison Iseman has also been cast.


Gary Dauberman, who also wrote the script, will be making his directorial debut. James Wan is producing for Atomic Monster and Peter Safran is producing for the Safran Company. Michael Clear and Michelle Morrissey will executive produce the yet untitled Annabelle project which will be released on July 3, 2019.
