Four sequels followed that initial movie, with each new installment focusing on a different group of characters being pursued by Death. He is being joined by his wife and manager, Dianna McGunigle, who is serving as a producer alongside Final Destination franchise veterans Craig Perry and Sheila Hanahan.įinal Destination first terrified audiences back in 2000. Jon Watts is producing the picture after also writing the treatment for the relaunch. Guy Busick, who worked on the screenplay for the latest Scream film installment, is said to be in charge of the script along with Lori Evans Taylor. Plot details for the Final Destination reboot are seemingly being kept under the cloak of the Grim Reaper, but it is understood that the sixth movie will follow a similar formula to the other films in the franchise, wherein a group of people cheat death and then death comes back to claim them by using any means possible, resulting in some very elaborate and unexpected death sequences.

The filmmakers reportedly used a combination of pre-recorded footage and visual effects to create the action-packed scene, which elicited laughs from the crowd and secured their places in the directors' seats for Final Destination 6, as it's currently known.

The tension in the air was immediately lifted as the execs and producers realized that Lipovsky and Stein had pulled a stunt. The filmmakers quickly extinguished the blaze, much to the relief of the other meeting participants, but the chaos continued when an overhead ceiling fan came crashing down and decapitated one of the directors. Towards the end of the call, the fireplace situated behind Lipovsky and Stein became engulfed in flames and the mantel began burning, putting an urgent pause on proceedings.
