Exorcisms are the idea of the day in the boardrooms of Fox as they order a pilot of William Peter Blatty’s 1971 book The Exorcist. Jeremy Slater – known for Fantastic Four and The Lazarus Effect – has been tapped to pen the hour long drama, Fox describing the plot of the series as :
“a propulsive, serialized psychological thriller following two very different men tackling one family’s case of horrifying demonic possession, and confronting the face of true evil”. Time will tell if this is able to replicate the classic film, or whether Jeremy Slater – whose script for Fantastic Four is nominated for a Razzie for Worst Screenplay – will be able to put together a script worthy of the cult classic name.
