‘Purge 3’ is coming soon and will most likely feature James DeMonaco as writer and director
James DeMonacao, the writer and director of ‘The Purge’ is probably laughing all the way to the bank. According to recent reports, ‘Purge 3‘ is ramping up production and getting ready to film later this year and early 2015.
The Purge was shot on a budget of only $3 million, but ended up making $89 million at the box office. The sequel, ‘The Purge 2‘ had only a $9 million budget, but made $108 million at the box office.
So it should not surprise anyone that ‘The Purge 3’ is happening and most likely DeMonaco will write and possibly return to direct the feature film.
“I never imagined that The Purge would become the phenomenon it has become,” DeMonaco told Deadline, “and I am thrilled to continue my collaboration with Blumhouse, Sebastien Lemercier, Platinum Dunes and the great team at Universal in building The Purge into a worldwide franchise.” (Via Deadline)
No details have been revealed regarding the storyline behind The Purge 3. But, expect to see a larger budget and maybe bigger names appearing in the feature film.
