The Conjuring: Last Rites has begun filming, confirms franchise veteran and creator James Wan.
As the fourth movie in The Conjuring franchise, the movie will serve as the swan song for the main series. The Conjuring followed paranormal experts and demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren (played by Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga respectively) as they rid a family’s house of an evil entity. The film was such a success that it led to two sequels and several spinoffs, most of them performing well with critics and grossing an impressive $2 billion at the global box office.
Co-producer Wan took to Instagram to share a photo from the set of The Conjuring: Last Rites. The photo itself is a picture of Wilson and Farmiga’s chairs, with their character names stitched onto the backs. In the caption, Wan says that it’s always good to hang out with old friends and that he’s going to miss everyone, as the film marks the “End of an era.”
