OK, firstly, there’s an Insidious: Chapter 3 movie coming… and there’s a teaser ahead of the full trailer (arriving tomorrow) below and a poster for it above. Now, there’s more Insidious news too.
Blumhouse Productions, the folks behind the Sinister and Insidious horror flicks, seem to want some of that Shared Universe pie that Marvel, Ghostbusters, Disney, Universal and DC are all hungry for.
Comingsoon have been chatting to Blumhouse founder Jason Blum who said that they are currently working on knitting their big movies together into one, conjoined reality; asked if it was a ‘shared universe’, he replied: “Be like Marvel, you mean? Yeah! I want to do that. We’ve been putting Easter Eggs in movies in different things. There’s some in Insidious 3. There’s some in Sinister 2. So yeah, we’ve been doing that. I would like to do more of that.”
So, with Insidious Chapter 3 coming out on June 5th and Sinister 2 arriving August 21st it looks like the universe is being built already: “We’re not close to an Avengers, but I do like the idea of having the worlds collide in the different franchises we work on. That’s a really cool idea… I want to continue to do that.”
No word on any other movies that might fit in, but when has that ever held a Hollywood studio back?
The full Insidious: Chapter 3 trailer will be revealed tomorrow, so keep an eye on us, ok?

Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
