The Purge 3 Officially Announced

The Purge has always been a horror-thriller franchise concept that is full of promise for series franchise longevity. The second one proved that to be true, and also showed us that it's a powerhouse that is just getting started. Blumhouse Studio, Platinum Dunes and Universal, did not take too long, and has recently announced the sequel. The Purge 3 is slated to release the film next year.

Writer/director James DeMonaco will return to pen the script, though his participation as a director has not yet been announced.  DeMonaco said in an interview: “I never imagined that The Purge would become the phenomenon it has become and I am thrilled to continue my collaboration with Blumhouse, Sebastien Lemercier, Platinum Dunes and the great team at Universal in building The Purge into a worldwide franchise.”
