Candyman

March 29, 2017

Candyman is a 2021 horror film directed by Nia DaCosta, and written by Jordan Peele, Win Rosenfeld, and DaCosta. The film is a direct sequel to the 1992 film of the same name, and the fourth film in the Candyman film series, based on the short story "The Forbidden" by Clive Barker.

In present day, a decade after the last of the Cabrini towers were torn down, Anthony and his partner move into a loft in the now gentrified Cabrini. A chance encounter with an old-timer exposes Anthony to the true story behind Candyman. Anxious to use these macabre details in his studio as fresh grist for paintings, he unknowingly opens a door to a complex past that unravels his own sanity and unleashes a terrifying wave of violence.

The film stars Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Teyonah Parris, Nathan Stewart-Jarrett, and Colman Domingo. Vanessa Williams, Tony Todd, and Virginia Madsen also briefly reprise their roles from the original film.

Candyman released is set to hit theaters August 27th, courtesy of Universal Pictures.
