The creator intends to use the mythology created in The Conjuring and its sequels, spin-offs and prequels to create brand new adventures, allowing the series to develop in exciting ways. Thread: An Insidious Tale currently has no release date, while Insidious: Red Door will debut on July 7.
The plot basically starts with the world of Further in the same way that I look at my Conjuring movies , I think, ‘Hey, the Burrows have a haunted museum, there are so many different haunted artifacts that we can sort of separate the stories,’ and Thread really does. is something like that. [Co-creator of Insidious ] Leigh [Whannell] and I built something like this place … in the world of Insidious , and we felt there were a lot of stories we could tell, and that’s one of the potentials we’re hoping to pull out of this spin-off. .

Thread is set to be developed by Moon Knight screenwriter Jeremy Slater and will star Kumail Nanjiani and Mandy Moore. When the project was announced, it was described that Nanjiani and Moore would play a married couple who cast a spell from another world in hopes of going back in time and preventing their daughter’s death.
Between the writers’ strike and the potential actors’ strike, there may not be any significant development on Thread in the near future. In the original Insidious, the Lambert family is under investigation and Dalton (Ty Simpkins) has suffered an injury that makes him the target of a supernatural threat. When Elise Rainier (Lin Shaye) tries to offer help, we learn that Dalton’s (Patrick Wilson) father was a similar target of a supernatural being in his childhood. Insidious : Red Door will explore how the Lamberts deal with the events that happened 10 years earlier as Dalton goes to college.
Insidious: Red Door releases on July 7.
