"Look, I am sorry to tell you this but that movie won’t happen.. Evil Dead 2 is not going to happen, at least not with us involved. We left that project many months ago because we preferred to put our energies on other things."
"I don’t know if the producers still have intentions of making it. But what I can tell you is that we are not part of that project.", Rodo Sayagues said In an interview with Gorosito TV back in October..
But it now appears that Alvarez is back on board.. In a recent chat with ShockTillYouDrop, Fede Alvarez told the site:
"Sam, Bruce and Rob Tapert and I are good friends and we talk to one another often and we're always coming up with new ideas and projects," he said. "Sam is teasing Army of Darkness 2, which he is working on the script with his brother, but at the same time Evil Dead 2 is something we definitely want to do at some point. But part of the reason I think the last one was successful is because Sam took his time to find the right team of people to do it. We took the time to find the right script and all of that.
If you had Evil Dead 2 coming out the following year, it's just for the market, not because you've found the right idea. It takes time to find the right idea and that's what we're doing. It's always in the background and always in our heads. And every time I talk with Sam, we're bouncing around ideas to find what would be the perfect sequel."
If you guys didn't know Alvarez directs the next episode of 'From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series', airing tomorrow night at 9pm on El Rey...
For Me personally I really enjoyed Evil Dead, I didn't look at the film as a remake.. It felt more like a story about another group of friends visiting the cabin and having to face the evil force..
