Pick up the Believer, they’ll make you a Deceiver. Sorry, that was a corny play on “Personal Jesus” by Depeche Mode. The point of this article is to let you know The Exorcist: Deceiver, a sequel to The Exorcist: Believer (a direct sequel to The Exorcist) has already been green-lit. The Exorcist: Believer follows two families trying to tackle the possession of their respective daughters. And none other than Chris MacNeil (Ellen Burstyn) returns to help.
