Released in 2019, Alexandre Aja‘s Crawl put Kaya Scodelario up against a category 5 hurricane and a pack of hungry alligators, and the thrilling mix of action and suspense-horror proved to be a hit with audiences at the box office. On a $13 million production budget, Crawl scared up over $91 million worldwide, with sequel talks beginning almost immediately.
What’s the latest on Crawl 2, you might be wondering? THR reports today that Paramount Pictures is “deep in development” on the sequel, with Aja returning to direct! Andrew Deutschman and Jason Pagan (Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension) are writing.
The Hollywood Reporter notes, “Crawl 2 will feature a new cast and a new location, in this case the more urban dangers of New York City, according to sources.”
Producers for Crawl 2 will include Aja and Sam Raimi.
In Crawl, produced by Sam Raimi, “When a massive hurricane hits her Florida hometown, Haley (Kaya Scodelario) ignores evacuation orders to search for her missing father (Barry Pepper). Finding him gravely injured in the crawl space of their family home, the two become trapped by quickly encroaching floodwaters. As time runs out to escape the strengthening storm, Haley and her father discover that the rising water level is the least of their fears.”
Alexandre Aja has established himself as a master of horror since debuting on the scene with High Tension, subsequently directing The Hills Have Eyes, Piranha 3D, and Crawl.

David Dastmalchian (Dune, The Suicide Squad) stars as Jack Delroy, the charismatic host of “Night Owls,” and the film traces the ill-fated taping of a live Halloween special in 1977 plagued by a demonic presence. The energetic and innovative feature hails from Australian writing-directing team Colin and Cameron Cairnes (100 Bloody Acres, Scare Campaign).
Meagan Navarro wrote in her review for Bloody Disgusting, “Late Night with the Devil captures the chaotic energy of a late night show, embracing the irreverent comedy and stress of live television with a pastiche style. It’s a clever trojan horse for a surprising horror movie that goes full throttle on unhinged demonic mayhem.”
Late Night with the Devil was also praised by both Stephen King and Kevin Smith, with King tweeting: “Late Night with the Devil. It’s absolutely brilliant. I couldn’t take my eyes off it. Your results may vary, as they say, but I urge you to watch it when you can.”
