FinalDestination6 finds its directors in Freaks' Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein.
Scary movies linger long after the credits roll, no doubt, but not many get under the skin quite the way the Final Destination franchise manages to do. Across five movies, no one feels quite as safe boarding a roller coaster, waiting for a train to pass, going through car washes, or, god forbid, driving behind a semi hauling logs.
Though the news of a reboot has been circulating since 2019, it was partially the search for the right director that stalled New Line's next death-defying entry. Reportedly, over 200 candidates went up for the task, but it was Lipovsky and Stein, best known for their partnership on 2018's Freaks starring Emile Hirsch, that proved their worthiness for helming Death's continuing saga.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY According to THR, Lipovsky and Stein sat down for a Zoom call with New Line Cinema executives and producers to make their pitch. All seemed to be going well enough, and as the meeting was coming to a close, the mantle of the fireplace behind them went up in flames. How's that for timing? After hurriedly extinguishing the flames, both filmmakers took their seats to finish up the call when they were once again interrupted by a mysterious creaking noise.
At this time there are no cast members attached to the production, but Craig Perry and Sheila Hanahan Taylor, the original film's producers, will be returning alongside Spider-Man: Homecoming's director Jon Watts and Atlanta's Dianne McGunigle.
