The official trailer for the highly anticipated horror sequel, titled Insidious: The Red Door, made its debut on April 19. The fifth installment of the franchise, which was confirmed in October 2020, will also serve as the directorial debut for the film's star, Patrick Wilson.

James Wan, who returns as a producer for the sequel, has expressed his confidence in Wilson's ability to deliver a captivating experience. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Wan stated, "I'm super excited for what Patrick's doing with Insidious. Patrick reminds me a little bit of Leigh Whannell in that they are not just actors slash whatever; they are filmmakers as well."

The script for Insidious 5 was penned by Scott Teems, known for his work on Halloween Kills, and is based on a story by franchise co-creator Leigh Whannell. With these creative minds behind the scenes, fans can anticipate an intriguing journey into the depths of horror.

Insidious 5, or Insidious: The Red Door, is set to hit theaters on July 7, 2023, barring any unforeseen release date changes. The filming of the movie concluded in August 2022, with Wilson sharing a behind-the-scenes snapshot to commemorate the occasion. This image initially fueled speculation that the film would be titled Insidious: Fear the Dark, but the final title was revealed to be The Red Door.

Returning to reprise their roles are Patrick Wilson, Rose Byrne, Ty Simpkins, and Andrew Astor as Josh, Renai, Dalton, and Foster Lambert, respectively. Despite her character's demise in the first movie, Lin Shaye will continue to be a part of the series as Elise Rainier, as confirmed by the first trailer. Although her appearance seems to be limited to a recording, fans may still catch a glimpse of Elise in The Further.

The involvement of Leigh Whannell and Angus Sampson, who portrayed Elise's colleagues Specs and Tucker, has yet to be confirmed. The return of Barbara Hershey as Josh's mother Lorraine also remains uncertain. However, the movie introduces three new faces to the franchise: Hiam Abbass, Sinclair Daniel, and Peter Dager, all in undisclosed roles. From the trailer, Abbass appears to portray an art lecturer at Dalton's college.

Insidious: The Red Door promises a thrilling narrative as the official synopsis reveals, "To put their demons to rest once and for all, Josh and a college-aged Dalton must go deeper into The Further than ever before, facing their family's dark past and a host of new and more horrifying terrors that lurk behind the red door."

Wilson sheds light on the film's connection to the first two movies and offers intriguing insights into his directorial debut. He reflects on the characters being hypnotized, the impact on their lives after a decade, and the exploration of themes like family dynamics, college experiences, and supernatural abilities.

As we venture back into The Further, we can anticipate the reappearance of familiar demons, such as the Bride in Black and the Lipstick-Face Demon, whose presence haunted the previous films.

Prepare to immerse yourself in the terror of Insidious: The Red Door when it hits cinemas on July 7.
