"The Curse of Annabelle 3" is a continuation of the series of films about the demonic doll Annabelle. In turn, events unfold in the universe of The Conjuring films, the central characters of which are demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren, as well as their daughter Judy.
Plot of the film
The filming of the sequel to the successful horror franchise "The Curse of Annabelle" became known almost immediately after the release of the second part, entitled "The Curse of Annabelle: The Dawn of Evil." The official trailer for the upcoming premiere was released in early April 2019, and immediately gathered a lot of positive reviews: the plot will again continue the story of the family couple of demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren, who have already become the main characters of the films The Conjuring and The Conjuring 2. The film tells about the further fate of the mysterious Annabelle doll, which was deposited in the Warrens home museum.
One of the central characters in The Curse of Annabelle 3 will be a teenage girl Judy, daughter of Ed and Lorraine. Parents strictly forbid her to enter the museum, where dozens of dangerous exhibits are kept, with which various mystical stories are associated. Yet Judy violates parental orders and explores the room. Accidentally, she frees the Annabelle doll from captivity and immediately begins to observe strange phenomena around her: frightening rustles and movements, as well as the appearance of a certain girl who calls herself Annabelle.
From the events of the previous films in the series, viewers already know that, by a mystical coincidence, the doll became the haven of a demon whose purpose is to take possession of the souls of innocent people and obtain a physical appearance. Anyone who finds out the secret of the toy and gets confused to stop it, risk dying or going crazy. Now danger threatens Judy and the entire Warren family. Ed and Lorraine will have to use all their knowledge and capabilities to stop the bloodthirsty demon and save their daughter. Ordinary townspeople living near the Warrens are also in danger.
Actors and release date
The premiere of the film "The Curse of Annabelle 3" in Russia will take place on June 27, 2019. The role of Ed Warren will once again be performed by American actor Patrick Wilson. He managed to appear in dozens of large-budget projects, including: "Guardians", "Astral", "Fargo", "Aquaman" and others. The actress Vera Farmiga will appear on the screens as Lorraine Warren. The most famous film with her participation remains "The Conjuring". In addition, the actress took part in the filming of the films "Child of Darkness", "Source Code", "Passenger" and some others. The rest of the roles in "The Curse of Annabelle 3" will be played by young actresses McKenna Grace and Madison Iceman.
The film is directed and written by Gary Doberman, and this is his directorial debut. Previously, Doberman wrote scripts for the films of the series "The Curse of Annabelle", "The Conjuring" and "It". Also, the creator of The Conjuring film franchise and a number of other horror films, James Wang, took part in writing the script. The film is created by New Line Cinema, Warner Bros. Pictures, Atomic Monster Productions, and The Safran Company.
It's worth noting that The Curse of Annabelle is not the only spin-off in The Conjuring franchise. In 2018, the screens released the film "The Nun", which tells the background story of the mystical demon that appeared in the "Conjuring 2" project. Gary Doberman and James Wang also contributed to the film. At the moment they are working on a picture about another mystical character - The Hunchback (the original name of the future project is The Crooked Man).
