A new featurette about the growing Conjuring universe gives the first glimpse at 2018’s The Nun. The spinoff of The Conjuring 2 hits theaters next summer looking to continue what’s been an epic run for horror at the box office. The 2013 original was such a massive hit that it has spawned an entire franchise, with the demonic nun known as “Valak” (Bonnie Aarons) getting her own film and a chance to keep expanding what’s been one of the biggest recent successes in the genre.
Director Corin Hardy is clearly excited to be behind the cameras for The Nun, describing Valak as a “classic, scary horror icon” in a new featurette that has surfaced online. The video spans the whole Conjuring series as it spotlights Annabelle: Creation and its connections to the greater universe of the films, but it also gives a sneak peek at what to expect from The Nun.
