Overview
- Paramount has scheduled the yet-to-be-titled 'Crawl' sequel for release on July 16, 2027.
- Trade reports name Mason Gooding and Emily Rudd as the new leads, though full casting has not been officially confirmed by the studio.
- Alexandre Aja is reported to be returning to direct and to produce, with producers said to include Craig Flores and Sam Raimi; some production attachments remain unverified.
- Paramount also moved the horror title 'Heart Eyes 2' up a week to a Feb. 4, 2028 release in a wider reshuffle of its genre slate.
- The original 2019 'Crawl' was a low-budget breakout, which helps explain the summer release and makes the sequel's production timeline, plot details and marketing rollout the key items to watch next.
