Original Blair Witch Team Rejoins as Execs for Reimagined Project
Lionsgate is rebooting The Blair Witch Project with Dylan Clark directing; original stars Joshua Leonard and Michael C. Williams will be executive producers, joining the film’s veteran creators Eduardo Sánchez, Daniel Myrick and Gregg Hale. The reboot is part of a CinemaCon‑announced multi‑film deal, with James Wan and Jason Blum (alongside Roy Lee) producing for Blumhouse-Atomic Monster, and a broader production team also in place. The move follows 25 years of neglect for the original creatives, highlighted by Leonard’s public frustration, while the original film’s modest $35,000 budget yielded about $248 million at the box office.
