Ready for some groovy news about the upcoming Evil Dead film: Evil Dead Rise (2022)? Information regarding the plot is already out and we can gnaw on it ’til a trailer is dropped. Otherwise, we’re riding off of bits of information such as a comment from Bruce Campbell about how it’s going to be an adult Evil Dead movie (as if the franchise was tame before). As well as minor details about the cast.
Evil Dead Rise’s cast has been confirmed and at least we’re getting leading ladies. Which is certainly a change of pace for the franchise. Bruce Campbell not reprising his role as Ash might still be startling for some, but it allows for something fresh for the franchise. Just like Evil Dead (2013) did with Mia (Jane Levy).
So, who is starring in this bloodbath?
Younger sister Beth will be played by Lily Sullivan—An Australian actress who is best known for starring in Mental (2012).
Older sister Ellie will be played by Alyssa Sutherland—An Australian actress who is best known for her role in the television series Vikings (2013-2016).
Ellie’s three kids will be played by young actors Gabrielle Echols, Morgan Davies, and Nell Fisher
Jessica will be played by Mia Challis—An Australian actress who is best known for the Netflix series, Clickbait (2021).
We’ll certainly see what these individuals bring to the franchise soon enough. And whether or not they were the best choices for the Evil Dead franchise.
