James Wan Announces MALIGNANT Wrapped And Will Release On Sept. 10
James Wan has announced that his new film MALIGNANT has finished via Instagram and Facebook, along with this image.
MALIGNANT comes out September 10th. I finally wrapped it last week. This was supposed to be my “little horror thriller” I do between the big ones, but the pandemic pushed it as long the big ones. I’m super excited for this film. I don’t even know how to describe it. I wanted to do something original and genre-bending, and different to my other work, but still in the spirit of the horror-thrillers I grew up with. More to come. #MalignantMovie
